A standard six-foot outdoor bench from our outdoor bench factory is not one fixed weight, because material and design change the number dramatically. For a quick answer: most six-foot benches in our standard line fall between 60 and 140 pounds. Lightweight aluminum frames with slats can be as low as 45 to 70 pounds. Cedar, teak, and other solid wood benches often land around 60 to 95 pounds. HDPE or composite benches usually weigh 75 to 110 pounds. Steel benches with wood or metal seating typically run 90 to 140 pounds. Heavy-duty concrete, cast stone, and granite-look benches can weigh 180 to 350 pounds, and some reinforced or backrest models exceed 400 pounds.
Can two people move it? Yes for many standard models, but not all. If the bench is 60 to 140 pounds and is not anchored, two healthy adults can usually lift and carry it a short distance with good technique. One person should take the front, the other the back or opposite end. Bend your knees, keep the bench close, and lift together. A bench with a backrest can be awkward because the weight is not centered; remove cushions and accessories first.
For benches above 150 pounds, two people may still slide, pivot, or walk the bench across a smooth patio or driveway, but carrying it up stairs or over uneven ground is risky. Concrete and cast-stone benches are usually too heavy for a safe two-person lift. Use a furniture dolly, hand truck, or ask three or four people. If the bench is bolted to a slab, unbolt it before moving. Also check whether legs or arms can be removed; knocking down a bench can reduce the weight of each piece and make two-person moving much easier.
In short, a standard six-foot outdoor bench from our factory is likely 60 to 140 pounds, and two people can move most of those models. For concrete or oversized designs at 180 to 350 pounds or more, two people can sometimes reposition it, but lifting and carrying should be done by a larger team or with equipment. For exact weight, check the product spec or ask our factory for the ship weight and assembly weight, because packaging and optional features can add pounds.
