Shipping from South Carolina to Burundi

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.

Shipping a 50 lb box typically costs $40 to $80+ for ground services, depending heavily on distance, carrier (USPS, UPS, FedEx), speed, and if you use your own box or flat-rate options, with USPS often cheapest for shorter distances and FedEx/UPS competitive for longer hauls, though expect added handling fees for over 50 lbs. Expect around $38-$65 (USPS Ground), $42-$72 (UPS Ground), or $41-$70 (FedEx Ground) for typical cross-country routes, plus potential surcharges.

Crime Risks While foreigners are not typically targeted for violent crime, carjackings and theft are common, especially outside major cities like Gitega and Bujumbura. Non-violent crimes, such as bag-snatching and pickpocketing, are frequent in crowded places.
