Shipping from Shenzhen to the USA

Shenzhen to the US West Coast is the shortest route, about 14–20 days port to port to Los Angeles and Long Beach, which makes it the usual choice for California and the western states. For New York, New Jersey and the East Coast, all-water sailings take longer at sea but avoid a long truck or rail leg.

US shipments need an Importer Security Filing before loading, a customs bond and the current duty for your HS code. We check these before you book. If you do not want to handle US customs yourself, ship DDP and we deliver with duties paid.

Under about 13 CBM, LCL is usually the cheaper option. Between about 13 and 28 CBM, we compare LCL with a 20ft container for your route: a full container is faster, handled less and has lower destination charges.
