Mattress Shipping Cost from New York, New York to Knoxville, Tennessee

Shipping a mattress is more complex and expensive than standard deliveries. Whether you're moving, selling mattresses online, or buying from a retailer, you're looking at costs ranging from $130-280 for ground shipping across the U.S., with premium services reaching $1,500+ for cross-country delivery.

It's not always worth it to ship a mattress. The shipping fees that you may incur from shipping a mattress can often be as much as or even more than the original cost of your mattress. However, shipping a mattress might be worth it if you're shipping some of the biggest bed sizes, like a California king-sized mattress.

Shipping a 50-pound box typically costs between $40 and $130+ for ground services, depending heavily on distance, carrier (FedEx Ground, UPS Ground, or USPS Ground Advantage are common choices), and any discounts, with FedEx often slightly cheaper for heavy items, while USPS can be good for shorter distances. For faster options, expect costs to jump significantly to over $100, sometimes much more.
