chests for transporting bedding furnishings (and mattresses)
score:3
Accepted answer
I believe in English such a thing would commonly be called a "blanket box" tho I think these are generally more for storage than transportation. The ones we have in my home do have handles so I suppose they are fit for both purposes.
I have also heard used the terms "blanket chest" and "linen chest" which would imply larger size and/or greater sturdiness.

Your description matches the spanish baúl, which Google translates as trunk.
Here are a couple of pictures more. Note that, since the word baúl has been used not only in medieval times but also in modern ones, the item that it refers to has slightly changed in function and in modern times it is used almost exclusively for storage, so new designs look way more furniture than as a way of transporting belongings (for example, no handles or locks).
And one of the definitions of trunk from the online Cambridge dictionary (and others) is:
a large, strong container that is used for storing clothes and personal possessions, often when travelling or going to live in a new place
