The typical well box is 50-55 lbs. The fiberglass stealth box I sell is 8 lbs. A fiberglass well box would probably be about 20 lbs.

My dual 12" boxes are around 60-70lbs, at least according to the UPS scales. I forget the exact weight... it's whatever the UPS maximum is, because I have to lie by a pound or 2 sometimes.

My box is MDF, and it is WAY too much weight! But, I'm not going to change it! My box is an oversized well box, and I figure it's about 60 or so pounds. I'm guessing the entire system at around 100 lbs.

I think I have most of you beat, although probably not in a good way. I bet my enclosure weighs between 80-100 pounds without the equipment. Maybe 130-140 with all the components installed. But the other figures posted sound about right. The well box that's in my brother's 89 probably ways about 50 lbs.
