Shipping Cost from Lome to Bucharest

Shipping furniture overseas costs anywhere from a few hundred dollars for small items to $2,000 - $10,000+ for a household, depending heavily on volume, destination (Asia/Europe often $2.5k-$4k for a 1-bed), method (sea freight cheaper than air), and service level (shared vs. full container). Factors like weight, distance, carrier, packing, and origin/destination services (pickup/delivery) significantly influence the final price.

The cheapest way to ship furniture usually involves using Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) freight, sharing truck space for non-full truckloads, or exploring bus freight (like Greyhound) for cost savings if it fits rules, but the absolute cheapest often means DIY methods like renting a truck or using ride-share movers (Dolly, GoShare) for local moves, or leveraging marketplaces like Shiply/uShip for competitive LTL quotes. Key cost savers include disassembling furniture, packing it yourself, and choosing slower delivery times.

To ship one piece of furniture across the country, prepare it by disassembling and wrapping it securely, then choose between LTL Freight (cost-effective for bulky items sharing a truck), specialized carriers like The UPS Store/FedEx (great for smaller or packed items), or courier services (like Greyhound for budget options), comparing quotes for the best balance of cost, speed, and protection, often involving a broker like uShip or FreightCenter for LTL.
