Mattress Shipping Cost from Detroit, Michigan to Guangzhou

Shipping to Guangdong, China, costs anywhere from ~$15 for small, light USPS packages to over $100 for larger, faster services, depending heavily on package size/weight, speed (express vs. economy), and carrier (USPS, UPS, FedEx, DHL), with basic options starting around $15-$30 and quicker deliveries costing significantly more, often requiring a quote via a carrier's calculator for specifics.

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.

US-China shipping fees vary widely by mode (air/ocean), speed, and size, with small parcels via USPS starting around $15-$30, while air freight for heavier items might be $3-$12/kg, and ocean freight for bulk goods is thousands per container, but recent geopolitical tensions have added new, fluctuating port fees on vessels, though a one-year truce (Nov 2025-2026) temporarily suspended some retaliatory duties. Expect base rates plus potential duties, especially after the U.S. removed the de minimis exemption for Chinese goods.
