Question 1

Is it cheaper to drive or ship a car?

Accepted Answer

Budget: The shorter the distance, the more cost-effective it is to drive instead of ship your car. Regardless of the total distance, look at your total moving budget and how much you can afford to spend on car shipping services compared to a cross-country drive.

Question 2

What is the cheapest way to ship a car?

Accepted Answer

The cheapest way to ship a car is typically open transport (an open carrier truck), as it's the most common and moves multiple cars at once, saving costs over enclosed shipping. To get the best rates, book in advance, be flexible with dates, compare multiple quotes from different brokers, choose terminal-to-terminal, and ship with a near-empty gas tank.

Question 3

Is it cheaper to ship a car by train or truck?

Accepted Answer

Shipping your car via train is the cheapest way to do cross-country car shipping, although this is limited only to certain areas.

Question 4

How much does shipping cost from India to the USA?

Accepted Answer

Shipping charges from India to the USA vary wildly, from a few hundred rupees for small documents (India Post) to thousands for heavier packages with express couriers like FedEx or DHL (e.g., ₹11,000+ for 5 days), with costs depending on weight, speed, and service, often ranging from ₹800-₹2000/kg for bulk to ₹3000-₹5000+/kg for small, fast shipments, plus potential customs/duties. Expect ₹1700-₹2300 for 0.5-1kg and around ₹870/kg for 11-15kg, with rates decreasing per kg for heavier commercial shipments.

Question 5

How long does it take to ship from India to Texas?

Accepted Answer

Shipping from India to the USA typically takes 5-8 days by air or 25-55 days by sea. Air freight, ideal for urgent shipments, costs approx. $3/kg (regular) to $5/kg (expedited), while ocean freight is more economical for heavier loads – averaging $2,300-$5,500 per container.

Question 6

How much does it cost to ship furniture from USA to India?

Accepted Answer

International moves from the USA to India typically cost $3,800–$7,200 for a 1–2 bedroom home via ocean freight. Average delivery time ranges 5–9 weeks port-to-door; customs processing and final-mile access may affect total timeline.

Question 7

What is an average cost to move a piano?

Accepted Answer

Moving a piano costs about $400 on average. However, costs vary depending on several factors, such as cost per mile (the starting price is about $50), the type of piano (a grand piano is typically high-priced), height and weight, ease of access, and the need for disassembly and reassembly.

Question 8

Is a piano dolly better than hiring movers?

Accepted Answer

Lifting such a monstrous piece of equipment is back-breaking work, even if you're only lifting it onto a dolly. Many times, confident homeowners attempt to lift a piano and not only damage the instrument but injure themselves. Next time, err on the side of caution: let professionals handle the heavy lifting instead.

Question 9

How much to transport an upright piano?

Accepted Answer

Moving an upright piano typically costs $150 to $650 for local moves (under 50 miles, often with stairs) and $500 to $2,500 for long-distance moves, depending heavily on distance, stair access, complexity, and mover expertise, with extra charges for difficult terrain or high-value insurance. Expect $200-$350 for simple local moves and potentially much more if stairs, tight turns, or extensive travel are involved.
