Mattress Shipping Cost from Tokyo to Long Beach, California

Shipping from Japan to USA pricing At about $3 per kilo, standard air freight is the cheapest option for shipments between about 150 kilos and 500 kg. Very light shipments for their size might be charged on dimensional weight, rather than actual weight.

Shipping from Japan to California varies greatly by method: Express Air (DHL, FedEx) takes 1-4 business days, Standard Air/Priority Mail (USPS, EMS) takes 5-14 days, while Ocean Freight (sea cargo) is much slower, ranging from 2-6 weeks, with post office surface mail potentially taking 2-3 months. The biggest factors are speed versus cost: air is fast and expensive; sea is slow and cheap.

If you need to ship to the US, you should use Yamato, DHL, UPS, FedEx, or some other private carrier. If that is not practical, refund your customers and cancel their orders. You can't control the USPS and this is not likely to get cleared up soon.
