Shipping Cost from Istanbul to Niamey

The cheapest way to ship from Turkey to the USA is usually sea freight (ocean freight) for bulk/heavy items, though it's slow (weeks), using LCL (Less than Container Load) to share space. For smaller packages, compare carriers like FedEx, UPS, and USPS (especially Flat Rate boxes for heavy items fitting inside), often finding discounts via platforms like ParcelABC or Take and Ship for better rates than standard post, while services like Yollando help consolidate purchases for better per-item cost.

Shipping from Turkey to the USA varies greatly by method: Air freight is fastest (1-5 days, depending on express vs. standard), while sea freight is much slower (2-5 weeks/15-50 days) but cheaper, with transit times often 15-30 days, excluding customs delays which can add more time. Express courier services (like FedEx, DHL) get packages there in 1-3 business days, while economy options take 2-9 days, and ocean freight can range from 2 to 5 weeks or more, depending on port congestion and customs clearance.

Shipping from Turkey to the United States by air can cost between $3.25 to $3.5 per kilogram (kg) for partial air cargo transportation for cargo weighing over 250 kg. The delivery time typically ranges from 1 to 3 days.
