Does anyone know how much a queen size pillotop mattress and boxspread weigh?

Question

Im am moving from California to New York and the only big thing I am taking is my bed. Movers are to expensive and I might have to freight my bed. I called Fed Ex but before they can let me know if I can ship my bed, they need to know how much does it weigh. Obviously I dont have a scale large enough for my bed and I have no clue how much a bed weighs. Thanks!

Answer 1

The weight would vary depending on manufacturer but a good starting figure would be about 50# for mattress and maybe 25# for box springs.
