Furniture Shipping Cost from Mexico City to Houston, Texas

Shipping from Mexico to the U.S. varies widely in price, from around $30 for small USPS packages (flat rate) to hundreds or thousands for larger freight, depending heavily on speed (days vs. weeks), weight/size, and method (air, truck, sea). Expect basic small parcels to start around $30-$60 via USPS, while larger shipments might cost $0.20-$0.40/lb for LTL (truck), $1,200-$3,500/container for ocean, or $3-$6/kg for air freight, with significant potential for customs fees and duties.

Shipping furniture overseas costs anywhere from $2,000 to over $10,000, depending heavily on volume (more stuff = more cost), destination (Asia/Europe vs. Australia), shipping method (shared container vs. full container/air freight), and service level (self-pack vs. full-service movers). Expect to pay roughly $2,500-$4,500 for a one-bedroom equivalent to Europe/Asia, while large moves can hit $8,000-$13,000+, with air freight being the priciest but fastest option.

From fluctuating fuel prices and driver shortages to customs documentation —such as the pedimento, which is required for legal entry of goods into Mexico or export to the U.S.—and duty classifications, every shipment involves multiple steps. Missteps can lead to costly delays or penalties.
