Furniture Shipping Cost from Rio de Janeiro to Athens

The cheapest way to ship furniture often involves Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) freight for larger items or sharing space, using bus freight for distance savings if it fits rules, or trying ride-share apps (Dolly, GoShare) for local moves ; for very tight budgets, DIY with a rental truck/U-Haul, or even selling & repurchasing might beat shipping costs. Proper packaging with cardboard, moving blankets, and corner protectors is crucial to avoid damage, which drastically increases costs.

Yes, you can absolutely ship furniture overseas, typically via cost-effective sea freight (containers) for large moves or faster but pricier air freight for urgent items, using specialized international movers who handle packing, customs, insurance, and delivery, though it's crucial to weigh costs against buying new, factoring in duties, and protecting valuable or sentimental pieces.

If you want it relatively fast, use DHL, FedEx, or UPS. They usually only take about 7-10 days, depending on where you are in Brazil. If you don't mind waiting, use the post office. In my experience, anything sent through the post office (Correio in Brazil) takes at least 20 days to be delivered.
