    If you could 'roll' a sprung mattress, then it would never unroll again to a state where it could be slept on.
    Although this was listed as with springs, but there are springs, and springs.

    Sprung mattresses do come rolled and are sold by Ikea amongst others. They are put inside a thick plastic bag, compressed under a big flat plate then evacuated and sealed, certainly make some strange noises when settling. "Bonnell" is the cheapest basic form of mattress springing.
