Appliances Shipping Cost from Rotterdam to Addis Ababa

The cheapest way to send a package to Ethiopia depends on weight: for light items (under 2 lbs), USPS (especially First Class if reliability isn't key) is often cheapest ; for heavier boxes, Aramex or using a parcel consolidator like MyUS / Shipito with DHL/FedEx might be best, as they offer discounted rates, with Aramex frequently being the lowest cost carrier overall, though slower. Always compare rates using online calculators from USPS, DHL, FedEx, Aramex, or consolidators like MyUS.com and Shipito for your specific weight and urgency.

Shipping a 20-foot container to Ethiopia typically costs $3,800–$6,500; 40-foot containers range from $6,800–$10,200 depending on origin. Average delivery time to Ethiopia is 6–10 weeks, depending on port congestion, customs processing, and inland transportation delays.

Shipping from the Netherlands varies greatly, taking 1-3 business days for express (DHL, FedEx, UPS) to the US/Europe, 4-8 days for standard, and potentially 1-4+ weeks for economy/postal services, with customs and destination country being major factors. Expect faster service for major hubs (like New York) and longer for remote areas.
