Furniture Shipping Cost from La Paz to Shanghai

The average price to move furniture within the U.S. ranges between $300 and $1,000. If you're only moving a short distance, you'll likely pay between $300 and $800 per piece of furniture, while long-distance moving costs can range from $475 to $1,600 per item.

Shipping a 50-pound box typically costs between $40 and $130+ for ground services, depending heavily on distance, carrier (FedEx Ground, UPS Ground, or USPS Ground Advantage are common choices), and any discounts, with FedEx often slightly cheaper for heavy items, while USPS can be good for shorter distances. For faster options, expect costs to jump significantly to over $100, sometimes much more.

Ocean freight is the most economical option for heavy or bulky items. Ocean freight is cost-effective, but transit times can range from weeks to months and port handling fees can increase shipping costs. Air freight is the fastest international shipping method, but it's not as cost-effective as ocean freight.
