Mattress Shipping Cost from Medellin to San Salvador

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.

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.

Sending a container to El Salvador generally costs from $1,300 - $3,000 for a 20ft container and $2,000 - $4,000+ for a 40ft container, depending heavily on the origin port (e.g., US West Coast vs. East Coast), market rates, fuel surcharges, and if it's Full Container Load (FCL) or Less than Container Load (LCL). Expect higher costs from the East Coast/Gulf and cheaper rates from West Coast ports like LA/Seattle.
