Community Involvement
Rooted in El Paso. Committed to giving back.
Popular Mattress has been part of El Paso since 1939. As a locally owned mattress store, we believe caring for our community extends beyond the showroom. From mattress donations that bring comfort to children and families to support for local schools, healthcare organizations and the arts, giving back is part of our family’s story.
