I have a memory foam mattress topper in my RV. No problems at all with it being in freezing weather. It does get very much stiffer/firmer in cold temperatures, which is not a concern unless you plan on sleeping on it in those conditions.
Very, very few household goods are harmed by sitting in cold temperatures (excepting obvious things like canned foods or cleaning supplies that are water-based and so can freeze and burst their containers).
