Furniture Shipping Cost from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to Lagos

Shipping from the USA to Nigeria varies widely in cost, from around $10 for small packages via USPS to hundreds or thousands for larger cargo, depending heavily on speed (days vs. weeks), carrier (USPS, FedEx, DHL, or freight forwarders), weight, size, and if you need door-to-door service, with major factors being air freight (faster, pricier) vs. ocean freight (slower, cheaper for bulk), plus potential Nigerian customs duties/taxes (5% VAT + more). Expect smaller air packages to start at $80+, while large pallets by air might be $3-$4+ per lb, and large ocean shipments (like cars/containers) can be thousands.

The best shipping company from the USA to Nigeria depends on your priority (speed, cost, or reliability), with DHL and FedEx excelling in speed/business (1-4 days), GIG Logistics (GIGL) known for ease/Nigeria focus, and USPS being the cheapest for heavy items; consider specialized freight forwarders like Aquantuo or USG Shipping for larger/freight needs, while services like CargoNaija offer customs clearing too.
