Appliances Shipping Cost from Beijing to Greenville, North Carolina

Shipping from China to the USA varies greatly in price, from ~$5-12/kg for express couriers, ~$4-8/kg for air freight, to ~$2,000-$6,000 per container for sea freight, depending on speed, volume, and urgency. Express is fastest (3-5 days), air is mid-range (5-10 days), and ocean is cheapest for bulk but takes 15-40+ days, with West Coast ports generally cheaper than East Coast ports.

Shipping from China to the USA can take 1 day to over a month, depending heavily on the method: express couriers (DHL, FedEx) take 1-5 days, air freight takes 2-15 days, and the slowest but cheapest sea freight takes 15-45+ days, with customs, holidays, and port congestion causing further delays.

The two big US domestic couriers, FedEx and UPS, are also popular choices for China-US deliveries. So too are other major international couriers like DHL and TNT. Like mail, the process is simple: it's generally straightforward to find the rates online, and there's no need for a formal quote.
