Appliances Shipping Cost from Seoul to San Salvador

Shipping from Korea to the USA varies wildly in price, from around $20-$50 for small, slow postal packages (Korea Post/USPS) to $100-$200+ for faster courier services (DHL/FedEx/UPS) or heavier items (Air Freight), and potentially thousands for large commercial sea freight. Costs depend on weight, dimensions, speed (air vs. sea), and carrier, with air being faster but pricier than ocean, though small items can be cheaper by air.

Essentially, shipping from Korea is not expensive in itself, but it is international shipping that is expensive. In fact, Korea is considered one of the least expensive Asian countries for shipping.

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.
