お布団の片付けをお願いできますか？

おふとんのかたづけをおねがいできますか？

Could you please help me put away the futon?

Romaji: Ofuton no katazuke o onegai dekimasu ka? / Reply Romaji: Hai, shōchi itashimashita. O-heya ni ukagaimasu.

はい、承知いたしました。お部屋に伺います。

はい、しょうちいたしました。おへやにうかがいます。

Yes, certainly. I'll come to your room.

Slight bow, or pointing towards the futon if staff is in the room.

While asking for help is common, try not to leave the futon in a complete mess. A basic fold can be appreciated.
