Furniture Shipping Cost from Osaka to Libreville

Shipping from Japan to the US varies wildly, from around $20-$30 for small items (under 1kg) via Japan Post (EMS/Airmail) to $60+ for heavier or faster options, depending on weight, size, speed (days vs. months), and carrier ( Japan Post, DHL, FedEx ), with costs increasing significantly for larger/heavier packages (e.g., 2kg+), with Japan Post generally cheaper but slower than private couriers like DHL/FedEx.

The cheapest way to ship furniture usually involves using Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) freight, sharing truck space for non-full truckloads, or exploring bus freight (like Greyhound) for cost savings if it fits rules, but the absolute cheapest often means DIY methods like renting a truck or using ride-share movers (Dolly, GoShare) for local moves, or leveraging marketplaces like Shiply/uShip for competitive LTL quotes. Key cost savers include disassembling furniture, packing it yourself, and choosing slower delivery times.

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).
