Furniture Shipping Cost from Washington, District of Columbia to Kolkata

International moves from the USA to India typically cost $3,800–$7,200 for a 1–2 bedroom home via ocean freight. Average delivery time ranges 5–9 weeks port-to-door; customs processing and final-mile access may affect total timeline.

The cheapest way to move furniture across the country usually involves a DIY truck rental, where you drive yourself, or using a freight trailer/container where you load, and a company drives, paying only for space used (like U-Pack ), with DIY truck rentals being slightly cheaper for driving yourself vs. freight being better for not driving, while also selling bulky items and using free packing supplies saves significantly.
