Delivery times from the the US to Nigeria can vary between 6-7 business days for a standard or express service to 14-21 for an economy service.

For the absolute cheapest shipping from the USA to Nigeria, USPS (especially Priority Mail for lighter items or Flat Rate) often wins for affordability, while Sea Freight (via freight forwarders like County Cargo or FEZ Delivery) is best for heavy or bulk items, though slower. For faster, door-to-door service, check rates with dedicated Nigeria-focused forwarders like Cargonaija or GIG Logistics and compare them with major carriers like FedEx and DHL.

Shipping a 20 lb package costs roughly $20-$40 for ground services (UPS, FedEx, USPS Ground Advantage) for shorter distances, but can range from $13 to over $100+ for faster or international options, depending heavily on the carrier, speed, and distance (zone). USPS Ground Advantage is often economical, while faster FedEx/UPS options like Next Day Air become much pricier, and sometimes splitting into lighter boxes (under 20 lbs) can be cheaper with USPS.

Shipping to Africa from the USA varies wildly, from ~$20 for small, slow USPS packages to $100s for faster couriers or large freight, depending heavily on weight, speed (days vs. weeks), and specific African country/city, with options like USPS (cheapest/slowest), DHL/FedEx/UPS (fast/pricier), and ocean freight (bulk/cheapest per kg). Expect under $50 for a 1-2 lb package via economy, while a 25lb box could be $170-$300+ depending on the carrier and service.
