Mattress Shipping Cost from Irvine, California to San Antonio, Texas

Shipping from California to Texas generally takes 2 to 8 days, depending heavily on the carrier (USPS, FedEx, UPS) and service speed; expect 1-3 days for faster options like Priority Mail/Express, 2-5 days for standard Ground Advantage, and 2-8 days for budget services like Media Mail or Ground Economy, with cross-country movers sometimes taking 4-6 days for large shipments.

Shipping a 50 lb package typically costs anywhere from $40 to over $100, depending heavily on distance, speed, and carrier, with FedEx/UPS Ground being cheapest for long hauls (~$75-$85), USPS Ground Advantage for regional/short distances (~$38-$128 depending on zone/service), and faster services like FedEx 2Day costing around $65+. For heavy boxes, carriers apply extra fees, so compare FedEx Ground, UPS Ground, and USPS Ground Advantage, plus consider flat-rate options if the box is compact.

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.
