Furniture Shipping Cost from New Orleans, Louisiana to Santo Domingo

Shipping a 50 lb box typically costs $75 to over $100, depending on distance, speed, and carrier, with FedEx Ground or UPS Ground often cheapest for longer distances ($70-$90+) and USPS Ground Advantage competitive for shorter hauls or regional delivery ($40-$70), though heavy surcharges apply for UPS/FedEx over 50 lbs. For speed, services like FedEx Express or USPS Priority Mail Express are much more expensive, potentially over $100-$200.

LTL (Less Than Truckload) Freight Shipping. LTL freight shipping represents one of the most cost-effective methods for shipping large furniture items across country. This service consolidates shipments from multiple customers in a single truck, allowing you to pay only for the space your furniture occupies.

The cheapest shipping service depends on your package (weight, size, destination), but USPS is often cheapest for lightweight items (under 2 lbs) with services like Ground Advantage, while platforms like Pirate Ship offer discounted USPS/UPS rates, and Media Mail is unbeatable for books/media. For heavier/larger items or faster service, compare USPS, UPS (Ground Saver, Ground), and FedEx (Ground, One Rate) using online calculators, remembering that DIM weight (dimensional weight) matters.
