Mattress Shipping Cost from El Paso, Texas to Tokyo

US to Japan shipping costs vary widely, from ~$18 for small, light documents (USPS) up to $100+ for heavier or faster parcels (FedEx/UPS/DHL), with a 1-4 lb package often costing $20-$60 (USPS Priority/Economy), while larger or faster shipments (2-10 lbs) can range from $60 to over $200+, depending heavily on weight, speed (days vs. weeks), and carrier. For budget options, USPS First-Class and Priority Mail are good for <4lbs, while UPS/FedEx offer faster, premium services.

Delivery times from the the US to Japan can vary between 6-7 business days for a standard or express service to 14-21 for an economy service.

The cheapest way to ship from Japan to the USA is usually Japan Post's Surface Mail, a slow sea freight option taking 1-3 months but costing significantly less, ideal for large, non-urgent items. For smaller, lighter items, Japan Post's "Small Packet" (under 2kg) is also very economical, though still slow (weeks to a month). Always compare Japan Post with private carriers like Yamato Transport (Kuroneko) for heavy or large items, as sometimes they offer better rates, and check current availability for slower services like SAL (Surface Air Lift).
