Shipping from France to the USA varies widely in price, from around €27 for small, light items (like USPS First-Class) up to potentially hundreds for heavy or large cargo, depending heavily on weight, size, speed (express vs. economy), and carrier (FedEx, UPS, USPS, freight forwarders), with rates starting lower for economy/basic services and increasing with speed and bulk. For accurate pricing, use online calculators from services like Easyship, FedEx, or Upela with your package details.

Local shipping costs between $300 and $800 per piece, while international rates range from $1,000 to $4,500 per item. Professional moving companies charge $25 to $50 per person per hour. If you want someone to pack your belongings before moving them, expect to pay an additional $150 to $750 for packing services.
