Furniture Shipping Cost from Busan to Long Beach, California

Shipping from Korea to the USA varies wildly in price, from around $20-$50 for small, slow postal packages (Korea Post/USPS) to $100-$200+ for faster courier services (DHL/FedEx/UPS) or heavier items (Air Freight), and potentially thousands for large commercial sea freight. Costs depend on weight, dimensions, speed (air vs. sea), and carrier, with air being faster but pricier than ocean, though small items can be cheaper by air.

Shipping from Korea to the US takes days to weeks for air freight (fastest) and weeks to months for sea freight (cheapest), depending heavily on the service (Express, Standard, Economy), carrier (FedEx, USPS, EMS), and customs, with express air taking 3-8 days and surface mail potentially 1-3 months.

Shanghai to Los Angeles/Long Beach: approximately 2 to 3 weeks transit on the water. Many vessels can do this route in about 14–18 days under normal conditions. (The shortest express vessels might be around 11-12 days port-to-port, while some make a stop or two and take up to 20+ days.)
