Furniture Shipping Cost from Seoul to Portland, Oregon

Shipping from Korea to the US varies widely, from around $50-$100 for small boxes (air) to much cheaper (but slower) sea freight, with factors like weight, speed (air vs. sea), carrier (USPS, DHL, FedEx, freight forwarders), and package size driving costs; expect prices to start high for fast air shipping but drop significantly with volume or by choosing ocean freight, possibly around $80 for large boxes over time via Korea Post.

Shipping from Korea to the US takes anywhere from a few days (express air) to several weeks or months (slow sea mail), depending on the service: Express (2-5 days), Standard Air (3-10 days), Ocean Freight (2-8 weeks), or Economy/Surface (1-3+ months), with faster options costing more but air freight being pricier than sea.

Essentially, shipping from Korea is not expensive in itself, but it is international shipping that is expensive. In fact, Korea is considered one of the least expensive Asian countries for shipping.
