Furniture Shipping Cost from Ashgabat to London

The two main shipping options are air freight and sea freight : Air freight: Quick - a cargo plane will take your things to the UK from anywhere in the world in just 2-3 days. Expensive - you pay a real premium for air freight, so it's not great if you're moving on a budget.

Air cargo prices per kg vary widely, typically from $1.50 to over $10+ per kg, depending heavily on route (e.g., dense lanes cheaper), cargo value/urgency, weight/volume (heavier = lower rate), fuel costs, seasonality, and global events, with general ranges around $4-$8/kg recently but sometimes hitting $20/kg during peak disruptions like the pandemic, notes Freight Right, Agora Freight, Bookairfreight, WebCargo® | Real-Time Air Cargo Booking & Pricing, and The Intech Group.

Container Rates and Costs from the US to the UK At a minimum of 30-40 days for a door to door shipment from the US to the UK, sea freight has the longest lead time. That's because ships move a lot slower than planes.
