Appliances Shipping Cost from Oslo to Kingston

Shipping a 20-foot container to Jamaica typically costs $2,300–$4,100; full 40-foot containers range from $3,600–$6,200. Ocean freight from U.S. ports to Kingston or Montego Bay averages 2–5 weeks, depending on port schedule and customs clearance.

The cheapest way to ship to Jamaica from the US is usually USPS Priority Mail International for smaller, lighter items or slower delivery, offering cost-effective rates and included insurance/tracking, while consolidators/brokers like Parcel Monkey or MyUS can provide significant discounts on major carriers (DHL, FedEx) for heavier parcels, often beating direct prices, especially with services like MyUS's "Inflation Breaker" for cheap economy options. Always compare prices using online calculators, considering weight, speed, and package value.

Defrost refrigerators at least 24 hours ahead of time. Remove and pack all shelves and drawers separately. Clean and pack ovens, all racks, knobs, and grills separately. Washers and dryers should have their hoses removed and packed by themselves — with the dryer's drum properly secured.
