How much do disassembled metal outdoor bar stools weigh for shipping?
When shipping disassembled metal outdoor bar stools, weight is a key factor for cost and logistics. On average, a single disassembled metal bar stool weighs between 8 to 15 lbs (3.6 to 6.8 kg), depending on materials (e.g., aluminum vs. steel) and design complexity. Bulk shipments with multiple stools may reach 50–100 lbs (23–45 kg) when packaged together.
Factors influencing shipping weight include:
- Material: Aluminum stools (lighter, ~8–12 lbs) vs. steel (~12–15 lbs).
- Packaging: Cardboard and foam padding add 1–3 lbs per stool.
- Components: Seat thickness, leg design, and hardware contribute to variations.
For accurate quotes, check manufacturer specs or weigh packaged stools before shipping. Lighter stools reduce freight costs, making aluminum a popular choice for long-distance transport.
