Furniture Shipping Cost from Luanda to Baltimore, Maryland

The average cost of an international move — including expenses like shipping and moving services — can range from about $3,000 to $18,000 or more. However, smaller moves over shorter distances may cost less, while larger, longer-distance moves may cost more.

Shipping furniture overseas is often not worth it unless pieces are high-quality, expensive, or deeply sentimental, as costs (thousands of dollars) usually outweigh the benefit, especially when good, affordable local options exist and appliances/electronics rarely work due to power/signal issues, making selling and buying new often the better, fresher start. Weigh the high cost of shipping (potentially $3,000-$10,000+) against replacement costs and the emotional value, factoring in the destination's climate and local furniture availability.

To ship one piece of furniture across the country, prepare it by disassembling and wrapping it securely, then choose between LTL Freight (cost-effective for bulky items sharing a truck), specialized carriers like The UPS Store/FedEx (great for smaller or packed items), or courier services (like Greyhound for budget options), comparing quotes for the best balance of cost, speed, and protection, often involving a broker like uShip or FreightCenter for LTL.
