Shipping Cost from Fresno, California to Kathmandu

Ocean freight shipping Ocean shipping is a great option for bulkier shipments since it offers much more space than air for a lower price. Depending on how large your shipments are, and how frequently you ship, you can choose either LCL (less than a container load) or FCL (full container load).

Shipping from the USA to Nepal involves major carriers (UPS, FedEx, DHL, USPS) and consolidators (MyUS, Shipito, Qwintry) offering air freight and express services, with costs and times varying greatly by weight, speed (days to weeks), and service level, from around $10 for small items to over $100 for heavier packages, using options like express (5-10 days) or economy (weeks) to get your parcel delivered door-to-door or to a hub in Kathmandu and beyond.

Shipping furniture overseas is often not worth it unless pieces are high-quality, expensive, or deeply sentimental, as costs (thousands of dollars) usually outweigh the benefit, especially when good, affordable local options exist and appliances/electronics rarely work due to power/signal issues, making selling and buying new often the better, fresher start. Weigh the high cost of shipping (potentially $3,000-$10,000+) against replacement costs and the emotional value, factoring in the destination's climate and local furniture availability.
