Mattress Shipping Cost from Fresno, California to Chennai

US to India shipping costs vary significantly by weight, speed, and carrier, ranging from around $20 for small/light items (1-3 lbs) with economy services (like Meest/MyUS) to $150-$300+ for heavier parcels (5-10 kg), with express options like DHL/FedEx being faster but pricier than USPS. Expect roughly $30-$60 for 1kg, $100-$200 for 5kg, and potentially $250-$300 for 10kg, plus potential Indian customs duties/taxes, especially for higher-value goods.

Shipping a 50 lb package costs roughly $40 to $90 for ground services, varying greatly by distance, carrier (USPS, UPS, FedEx), speed, and if you use flat rates or discounts, with USPS Ground Advantage often cheapest for shorter distances and FedEx/UPS competitive cross-country, plus potential surcharges for heavy items. For example, short-haul USPS might be ~$38, while cross-country UPS could reach ~$72 plus fees, or you could find FedEx Ground around $70.

Mattress Bag or Stretch Wrap : A heavy-duty mattress bag protects your mattress from dirt, moisture, and damage during the move. These bags are inexpensive (around $5 - $10) and come in all standard mattress sizes. If you can't get a bag, plastic stretch wrap can work in a pinch.
