Mattress Shipping Cost from Irvine, California to Houston, Texas

Shipping a mattress typically costs $160 to over $900, depending heavily on distance, weight, size (King costs more than Twin), and speed, with standard ground services like UPS Ground or FedEx Ground being cheaper ($130-$250) than expedited options or using specialized white-glove movers, which can reach $1,000+. Expect higher costs for long distances, heavier or larger mattresses (especially King/Queen), and faster delivery, while preparing it in a mattress box and checking Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) freight options can save money.

Can I ship a mattress through FedEx? Yes, you can. If you're shipping a mattress, you must pack it in a mattress shipping box. We also recommend that you pack it in heavy-duty plastic before you box and ship it.

Ground shipping from couriers like USPS, UPS, and FedEx is the best way to ship a mattress. On average, mattresses weigh anywhere between 50 to 150 pounds and come in a variety of sizes.
