Furniture Shipping Cost from Yokohama to Phoenix, Arizona

Shipping from Japan to the US varies wildly, from around $20-$30 for small items (under 1kg) via Japan Post (EMS/Airmail) to $60+ for heavier or faster options, depending on weight, size, speed (days vs. months), and carrier ( Japan Post, DHL, FedEx ), with costs increasing significantly for larger/heavier packages (e.g., 2kg+), with Japan Post generally cheaper but slower than private couriers like DHL/FedEx.

Local shipping costs between $300 and $800 per piece, while international rates range from $1,000 to $4,500 per item. Professional moving companies charge $25 to $50 per person per hour. If you want someone to pack your belongings before moving them, expect to pay an additional $150 to $750 for packing services.

Shipping a 50-pound box costs roughly $40 to $130+ for ground services, depending heavily on distance, carrier (FedEx Ground/UPS Ground often cheaper than USPS Ground Advantage), and if you use discounts or flat rates. For short distances, it might be ~$40-$70, while cross-country can reach $75-$130+, plus potential $28+ handling fees from UPS/FedEx for heavy items.
