Mattress Shipping Cost from Vancouver to Kansas City, Missouri

Comments Section USPS, FedEx and UPS can ship mattresses. It's just expensive. You need a heavy duty mattress shipping box plus a mattress bag. And it needs to be sealed well. It's going to be handled roughly, If the box comes apart, the mattress will likely be ruined. That would be your fault, not the shipper.

Shipping a 300 lb package costs a significant amount, generally ranging from under $200 to over $1,000, depending heavily on distance (local vs. interstate), carrier ( UPS / FedEx vs. freight), speed (ground vs. overnight), and using discount platforms like PirateShip, with rates potentially starting around $135-$160 for ground and increasing for faster/longer shipments. USPS can't handle items this heavy, so it's often UPS, FedEx, or LTL (Less-Than-Truckload) freight carriers.
