Mattress Shipping Cost from Phoenix, Arizona to High Point, North Carolina

Shipping a 50 lb box typically costs $75 to over $100, depending on distance, speed, and carrier, with FedEx Ground or UPS Ground often cheapest for longer distances ($70-$90+) and USPS Ground Advantage competitive for shorter hauls or regional delivery ($40-$70), though heavy surcharges apply for UPS/FedEx over 50 lbs. For speed, services like FedEx Express or USPS Priority Mail Express are much more expensive, potentially over $100-$200.

To calculate UPS shipping costs, you need the package's origin/destination, weight, dimensions (L x W x H), and chosen service, then use the online UPS Calculate Time and Cost tool or UPS website's calculator, remembering that dimensional weight (package size) or actual weight is used, whichever is greater, with a divisor like 139 (daily/retail) or 166 (international).

The cheapest way to ship a 20 lb package usually involves comparing USPS Ground Advantage, UPS Ground, and FedEx Ground, often finding online discounts for the latter two, though USPS Ground Advantage is strong for lighter-moderate weights, while Media Mail is cheapest for books; always compare rates across carriers and consider using regional carriers, minimizing box size, and using online shipping platforms.
