Furniture Shipping Cost from Frankfurt to Santo Domingo

Ocean freight shipping Ocean shipping is a great option for bulkier shipments since it offers much more space than air for a lower price. Depending on how large your shipments are, and how frequently you ship, you can choose either LCL (less than a container load) or FCL (full container load).

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.

The cheapest way to ship to the Dominican Republic involves using slower, economy services like USPS Priority Mail International for smaller parcels or comparing rates with consolidators like Qwintry, Shipito, Easyship, or Viabox to access discounted rates across carriers (DHL, UPS, FedEx). For large, non-urgent shipments, ocean freight (like LCL - Less than Container Load) is often cheaper than air, and specialized freight forwarders can help find the best rates for barrels or large cargo.
