Mattress Shipping Cost from Florida to Los Angeles, California

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.

The cheapest way to ship a mattress is UPS Ground, which costs ~$130 for short distances (~130 miles) and ~$210 for cross-country shipping. The fastest way to ship a mattress is UPS Next Day Air Early or FedEx First Overnight, with delivery by the next morning for $392-1,520 depending on distance.

Shipping from Florida to California takes 2 to 7 business days for standard ground services (like UPS Ground, FedEx Ground, USPS Ground Advantage), but can be as fast as 1-2 days with premium air options (FedEx Express, UPS Next Day/2-Day ) or over a week for very slow/budget options, depending on the carrier, specific locations, and service chosen.
