Mattress Shipping Cost from Anaheim, California to Auckland

Shipping a mattress is expensive, typically costing $150 to $300+ for standard ground services like USPS, FedEx, or UPS depending heavily on distance, weight, size (dimensions), and speed, with cross-country trips potentially reaching several hundred dollars or more, making it often cheaper to replace a standard mattress. Specialty carriers or white-glove services cost more, while peer-to-peer options like uShip can range from $200-$500+ but are negotiable.

Both returning citizens and visitors with long-stay or permanent visas can ship their household goods into New Zealand duty-free as long as they've owned them for six months or more and have lived outside of NZ for longer than 21 months.
