Furniture Shipping Cost from Osaka to Boston, Massachusetts

Shipping from Japan to the USA varies widely, from around $20-$30 for small, light items via Airmail/SAL (weeks) to $30-$100+ for heavier or faster shipments, with costs depending heavily on weight, size, speed (EMS, Air, Surface), and courier (Japan Post, DHL, FedEx), with surface mail being cheapest (1-3 months) and EMS/DHL fastest (days) but pricier.

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).

Shipping from Japan to the US varies drastically by method, from 2-5 days via express air (DHL, FedEx, EMS) for fast, small items, to 1-3 weeks for standard Airmail/SAL, and 1-3 months for the slowest Sea Mail/Surface Freight, with customs delays adding unpredictability. Faster methods are pricier but quicker; ocean freight is best for large/heavy goods but takes weeks/months.
