Mattress Shipping Cost from Istanbul to Mexico City

Shipping from Turkey to the USA varies greatly by method: Air freight is fastest (1-5 days, depending on express vs. standard), while sea freight is much slower (2-5 weeks/15-50 days) but cheaper, with transit times often 15-30 days, excluding customs delays which can add more time. Express courier services (like FedEx, DHL) get packages there in 1-3 business days, while economy options take 2-9 days, and ocean freight can range from 2 to 5 weeks or more, depending on port congestion and customs clearance.

Moving furniture to Mexico costs anywhere from a few thousand dollars for small shipments (e.g., $2,800-$3,500 for a 1-bedroom) to $8,000 or more for larger homes, averaging around $3,500-$6,000 for typical moves, with prices depending heavily on volume, distance, and service (sea freight cheaper than air). Be aware of potential Aduana (customs) taxes (around 19% ) and the need for a Menaje de Casa permit to import used household goods tax-free within six months of visa finalization, often requiring a customs broker.

Shipping a 50 lb package typically costs anywhere from $40 to over $100, depending heavily on distance, speed, and carrier, with FedEx/UPS Ground being cheapest for long hauls (~$75-$85), USPS Ground Advantage for regional/short distances (~$38-$128 depending on zone/service), and faster services like FedEx 2Day costing around $65+. For heavy boxes, carriers apply extra fees, so compare FedEx Ground, UPS Ground, and USPS Ground Advantage, plus consider flat-rate options if the box is compact.
