Mattress Shipping Cost from Prague to Yokohama

The cost to send a package to Japan varies widely, from around $20-$30 for lightweight items (under 1 lb) via USPS First-Class (weeks for delivery) to $50-$100+ for heavier or faster shipments using services like FedEx, UPS, or USPS Priority Mail Express, which can arrive in days. Key factors are weight, dimensions, speed needed, and the carrier (USPS for budget, DHL/FedEx/UPS for speed).

Luggage forwarding in Japan (Takuhaibin) is surprisingly affordable, typically costing ¥1,500 to ¥3,000 (around $10-$20 USD) for a standard suitcase between major cities like Tokyo and Kyoto, with prices varying by size, weight, and distance, often arriving next-day via services like Yamato Transport (Kuroneko) or JAL ABC. Larger bags or longer distances cost more, but it's a reliable, convenient way to travel hands-free, with most hotels helping you arrange it.
