Mattress Shipping Cost from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to Grand Rapids, Michigan

What is the Cheapest Way to Ship a Mattress? As we saw above, the cheapest way to ship is using ground services of UPS, USPS or FedEx. There is always a price fluctuation and it's better if you check each one of them individually.

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.

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.
