Appliances Shipping Cost from Minneapolis, Minnesota to San Salvador

No, Amazon doesn't directly ship most items to El Salvador, but you can use package forwarding services like ShipToBox, ColisExpat, or MyUS to get your purchases, as these services provide a U.S. address and forward packages to you in El Salvador. While some specific items might offer direct international shipping through AmazonGlobal, using a forwarding service gives you access to the entire US Amazon catalog.

Sending a container to El Salvador generally costs from $1,300 - $3,000 for a 20ft container and $2,000 - $4,000+ for a 40ft container, depending heavily on the origin port (e.g., US West Coast vs. East Coast), market rates, fuel surcharges, and if it's Full Container Load (FCL) or Less than Container Load (LCL). Expect higher costs from the East Coast/Gulf and cheaper rates from West Coast ports like LA/Seattle.

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.
