Appliances Shipping Cost from Ulaanbaatar to San Jose, California

Shipping from China to California typically takes 5-10 days by air freight (faster, pricier) or 2-4 weeks by sea freight (cheaper, slower), but can vary from a week for small express parcels to over a month for large, slow sea shipments, depending on method, port congestion, and customs clearance.

Shipping a 20 lb package costs roughly $20-$40 for ground services (like UPS Ground or USPS Ground Advantage) for shorter distances, but can range from $30 to over $100+ depending on speed (express is much pricier) and distance, with faster options like FedEx/UPS Next Day Air costing significantly more ($100+) and USPS Priority being a mid-range choice. Expect to pay around $30-$40 for ground, while faster services can double or triple that.

Shipping a 50-pound box costs roughly $40 to $130+ for ground services, depending heavily on distance, carrier (FedEx Ground/UPS Ground often cheaper than USPS Ground Advantage), and if you use discounts or flat rates. For short distances, it might be ~$40-$70, while cross-country can reach $75-$130+, plus potential $28+ handling fees from UPS/FedEx for heavy items.
