1. Express shipping
The pricing model for express shipping follows the same one as air freight. However, you should note that express orders will incur additional surcharges that don’t apply to standard air freight. These include extra service fees to expedite your order. Because air freight involves a lot of controls such as customs and terminal handling, you will need to pay a hefty fee to bump your shipment up to the front of the line.
2. Air Freight
The prices for air freight vary quite a bit. Lucky for you, the more you ship the cheaper the price you pay per kilo. For example, in April ,2022, if you’re only shipping 10 kilos, then you can expect to pay around d $18-28 per kilo of product. However, at 100 kilos, prices drop to around $10-20/kg of product.
From this, you can tell that air freight involves a lot of fixed costs. The total price of your shipment won’t var
Much based on how much you add.
Note that there are several other fees you can expect to pay. These include fuel surcharges, which are always increasing these days. Furthermore, since airports and airplanes require heavy security, you’ll need to pay for them to check your goods. Not to mention, there are several airport and terminal charges associated with your order.
3. Sea Freight
Since Sea Freight is best suited for larger loads, sea freight companies will charge you per container. In April, 2022, You can normally expect to pay $9,000-$10,000 for a 40ft standard container, shipping from China to US. That might seem expensive, but if your load weighs more than 5,000kg, shipping by sea freight becomes the best option by far.
With sea freight, there are a variety of ways for you to reduce costs. For instance, you can choose the right container type, port, and insurance to save money. Not to mention, sea freight is cheaper during the off-season. Using a full-container load is usually cheaper and faster, so keep that in mind. If you don't use a full container, you'll need to pay extra to deload the container at the port.
