Furniture Shipping Cost from Chicago, Illinois to Bangkok

Shipping from the USA to Thailand costs vary widely, from around $10-$20 for small, light packages (1lb) via budget/economy services (like Aramex, USPS First Class) with longer transit (8-16 days) to $40-$70+ for faster options (FedEx, UPS, USPS Express) with 2-6 day delivery, and even more for large or heavy items, with major factors being carrier, speed, weight, size, and service level (express vs. economy).

Local shipping costs between $300 and $800 per piece, while international rates range from $1,000 to $4,500 per item. Professional moving companies charge $25 to $50 per person per hour. If you want someone to pack your belongings before moving them, expect to pay an additional $150 to $750 for packing services.

To ship a single piece of furniture across long distances, choose a parcel carrier like UPS or USPS for small items. For larger pieces, such as beds or sofas, consider a freight service offering LTL (Less Than Truckload) shipping —it's cost-effective, and your furniture will be transported with other loads.
