Appliances Shipping Cost from Ho Chi Minh City to Birmingham

Shipping from Vietnam to the USA varies widely in price, from ~$20 for small postal packages to $1,500+ for full containers, depending on speed and volume: Express couriers (DHL/UPS/FedEx) cost ~$30-$50/kg, Air freight is ~$6-$12/kg for bulk, while Sea freight (FCL/LCL) runs ~$1,500-$3,000/container or $250-$350/CBM but takes weeks. For small parcels, USPS offers cheaper options like Priority Mail International.

For the absolute cheapest shipping from the US to Vietnam, especially for small items, USPS Priority Mail International or First Class International (if under 4 lbs) is usually best for small parcels (under 2lbs). For heavier or larger items, using a freight forwarder like MyUS or a comparison site like Easyship to find budget economy options with carriers like FedEx International Economy or DHL offers lower costs than standard express, though with longer transit times (weeks vs. days).

The average transit time to ship a container to Vietnam from China via sea freight is from 6 days to 10 days. The exact timeline will depend on the shipping method, distance, transportation route, customs clearance, weather conditions, logistic networks, holidays, carrier performance and others.
