Appliances Shipping Cost from Guangzhou to Saint Paul, Minnesota

Shipping from Guangzhou to the USA varies greatly by method: Express Courier (DHL/FedEx) takes 1-5 days, Air Freight is typically 3-10 days, while Ocean Freight (Sea) is much slower, ranging from 15-45 days or more, depending on if it's Full Container Load (FCL) or Less than Container Load (LCL) and destination port. Expect faster times for air/express and longer for sea, with customs and port congestion adding to delays.

Freight costs from China to the USA vary widely by mode, from $3-$15/kg for air freight (fast) to $1,200-$6,000 per container for ocean freight (slow), with smaller LCL shipments costing $50-$80/CBM, but recent spikes can see large costs. Expect $3-$8/kg for air freight (days) and $3,000-$6,000+ for a 20ft container (weeks), with express couriers at $8-$12/kg.

The fastest way to ship from China to the USA is Express Shipping, offering delivery in 1-5 business days, ideal for urgent, lightweight items, using carriers like DHL, FedEx, UPS. For slightly larger or bulkier urgent items, Air Freight is next, taking about 2-14 days but at a lower cost than express. Both are significantly faster than slower sea freight options.
