Mattress Shipping Cost from Prague to San Jose

How long does it take to ship cargo by air from the Czech Republic to the United States? If you ship via air freight, your goods will arrive at the destination airport in 2-8 days.

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.

Shipping from Europe to the US takes anywhere from 1-3 days for express air freight (DHL, UPS, FedEx) to 1-2 weeks for standard air, while slow economy/sea freight can take 4-8 weeks (or more), with major factors being speed choice (express vs. economy), customs clearance, and carrier. Express services are quick but pricier, while standard/economy is cheaper but much slower, often impacted by customs processing times.
