Mattress Shipping Cost from Beijing to Detroit, Michigan

Shipping from China to the USA varies widely, from 1-5 days for express air to 15-40+ days for sea freight, with options like standard air freight (1-2 weeks) and postal services (2-4 weeks) in between, depending on method, customs, port congestion, and destination (West vs. East Coast).

The cheapest shipping from China to the US depends on weight and speed: Sea Freight (LCL/FCL) is cheapest for heavy/bulk (50kg+), taking weeks; Air Freight (3-10 days) is best for medium/heavy (150kg+) at ~$3-8/kg; while for small parcels (<2kg), specialized postal/e-packet services (like China Post, YunExpress) are cheapest but slow (7-14+ days). For mid-range items (2-20kg), express couriers (DHL/UPS/FedEx) cost more but offer speed, so compare forwarder rates.
