Furniture Shipping Cost from Chicago, Illinois to Lorain, Ohio

Shipping furniture is expensive, ranging from $100 to over $1,000+, depending heavily on size, weight, distance, and service, with small items like chairs potentially $50-$200, while large items (couches, dressers) can cost $300-$1,500+ cross-country, often via freight or specialized carriers like uShip or FedEx Freight, with white glove services adding significantly more for delicate or high-value pieces.

The cheapest way to ship a piece of furniture is typically to use parcel services for smaller items and consider a freight shipping service like LTL for oversized items. If you're making a one-time shipment in your local market, consider renting a moving van and transporting the furniture yourself.
