Question 1

How much does it cost to ship a car from the USA to Colombia?

Accepted Answer

For most cars from the U.S., the cost of hauling to Colombia is $1,700 to $4,100 (this assumes the introductory shipment of a standard vehicle). Most shipments to the area come from a shipping container, so larger vehicles that cannot fit into a container are assessed an additional cost.

Question 2

Is it cheaper to drive or ship a car?

Accepted Answer

Driving is usually cheaper for shorter distances, but for long cross-country moves, the cost difference shrinks, and shipping can become comparable or even cheaper once you factor in gas, lodging, food, wear-and-tear, and your time, making the decision depend on distance, vehicle, your schedule, and budget. Driving saves money on carrier fees but adds wear on your car, while shipping costs more upfront but saves time, fuel, and stress.

Question 3

What is the cheapest way to ship a car internationally?

Accepted Answer

The cheapest international car shipping method is usually Roll-on/Roll-off (RORO), where your car is driven onto a specialized ship, costing less than containers but offering less protection; for more security with shared costs, consider a shared container (consolidation), while air freight is the most expensive but fastest, and platforms like uShip or Shiply help find competitive quotes from reliable carriers.

Question 4

How expensive is it to ship a piece of furniture?

Accepted Answer

Shipping furniture can range from $50 for small items via parcel to over $1,000 for large items or long distances, with typical costs for a single piece falling between $200 and $800, depending heavily on size, weight, distance (local vs. cross-country), and service (standard freight vs. white glove). A couch might cost $300-$500, while a bedroom set can be $800-$3,000, with factors like packing, speed, and if you use LTL freight or consolidate shipments significantly impacting the final price.

Question 6

How much does a 50 lb package cost to ship?

Accepted Answer

Shipping a 50-pound box typically costs between $40 and $130+ for ground services, depending heavily on distance, carrier (FedEx Ground, UPS Ground, or USPS Ground Advantage are common choices), and any discounts, with FedEx often slightly cheaper for heavy items, while USPS can be good for shorter distances. For faster options, expect costs to jump significantly to over $100, sometimes much more.

Question 9

Question 10

How much does it cost to have movers move a piano?

Accepted Answer

Piano mover costs vary widely, typically $200–$600 for local uprights, $400–$1,000+ for local grands, and $1,000–$2,500+ for long-distance moves, with bigger pianos (concert grands) and complex situations (stairs, crating, long distances) significantly increasing the price, potentially reaching thousands for international shipping. Key factors are piano type (upright vs. grand), distance, number of stairs, and special handling.

Question 11

Is a piano dolly better than hiring movers?

Accepted Answer

A piano dolly helps with short, flat moves but hiring professional piano movers is almost always better for safety, preventing costly damage (like a cracked soundboard or ruined floors), and handling stairs/tight spots, as they have specialized equipment, experience, and insurance for these heavy, delicate instruments. While a dolly saves money upfront, the risk of injury or significant repair costs usually outweighs the cost of professionals, especially for valuable or grand pianos.

Question 12

How much does it cost to ship an upright piano across the country?

Accepted Answer

For an upright piano weighing 300-500 pounds, you can expect cross country piano movers to charge between $1,200 and $2,500 for a coast-to-coast move. Baby grand pianos in the 500-800 pound range typically cost $2,000 to $4,500 for interstate piano shipping.
