Furniture Shipping Cost from San Jose, California to Jersey City, New Jersey

Check with a local pro for your specific job. The cost to move furniture depends on the type and weight of your belongings, the distance you're moving, and the shipment method you choose. Local shipping costs between $300 and $800 per piece, while international rates range from $1,000 to $4,500 per item.

A typical package to NJ to California took 2–3 days. If you make sure you get it to the post office before the last pickup it is usually 2 business days. The same as from New Jersey to New Jersey.

The best way to ship furniture involves thorough preparation—disassembling, protecting with padding (bubble wrap, blankets, corner guards), and boxing/crating—then choosing a carrier (UPS/FedEx for smaller pieces, LTL freight for large/heavy items) or specialized service, using freight aggregators for quotes, and insuring the shipment for safe, cost-effective delivery.
