Furniture Shipping Cost from Calgary to Lincoln, Nebraska

Shipping furniture from Canada to the US involves proper customs forms (CBP 6059B), HTS codes, potentially duties (though USMCA often grants 0%), and choosing between parcel carriers (FedEx, UPS for smaller items) or LTL/freight movers (for larger shipments), requiring good packing and documentation like Bills of Lading for a smooth, cost-effective move. Costs vary greatly ($100s to $1000s+), depending on size, weight, distance, and if you use white-glove services, with transit taking days to weeks.

Check with a local pro for your specific job. The cost to move furniture depends on the type and weight of your belongings, the distance you're moving, and the shipment method you choose. Local shipping costs between $300 and $800 per piece, while international rates range from $1,000 to $4,500 per item.

LTL shipping is an affordable way to move heavy items like furniture that don't require an entire truck. Think of LTL shipping as a ride share for your freight because your cargo will share trailer space with other shippers' cargo. This helps reduce freight rates and shipping costs.
