Mattress Shipping Cost from Charlotte, North Carolina to Cairo

Shipping from the USA to Egypt varies widely, from around $10-$30 for small, light parcels (1-2 lbs) via economy services like USPS/MyUS, to $40-$70 for slightly heavier items (3-4 lbs), and potentially $100+ for 20lb packages, depending heavily on speed (days vs. weeks) and carrier (USPS, UPS, DHL). Expect to pay more for faster express shipping (e.g., UPS Saver) and budget options (like USPS First Class) for slower delivery, plus potential duties/VAT in Egypt.

Shipping a mattress is expensive, typically costing $150 to $300+ for standard ground services like USPS, FedEx, or UPS depending heavily on distance, weight, size (dimensions), and speed, with cross-country trips potentially reaching several hundred dollars or more, making it often cheaper to replace a standard mattress. Specialty carriers or white-glove services cost more, while peer-to-peer options like uShip can range from $200-$500+ but are negotiable.

Ocean freight shipping Ocean shipping is a great option for bulkier shipments since it offers much more space than air for a lower price. Depending on how large your shipments are, and how frequently you ship, you can choose either LCL (less than a container load) or FCL (full container load).
