Key Takeaways. Shipping container transport costs range from $1,500 to $15,000 based on size, route, and market conditions. Fuel costs, route distance, container type, and demand affect prices the most. Asia to North America routes cost $3,000–$6,000 for a 20ft container.

Shipping from China varies wildly, from a few dollars for small items via postal service (like USPS Priority Mail Express International from $30+) to $2,000-$6,000+ for full containers (FCL) by sea, while air freight usually costs $3-$8+ per kilogram; prices depend heavily on weight, size, speed (air vs. sea), and chosen carrier ( DHL, FedEx, UPS, EMS, freight forwarders). For small parcels, express couriers are faster but pricier, while standard air freight (150-500kg) or LCL (less than container load) sea freight offer better per-kilo rates for larger shipments.
