Forty foot container USA to UK cost
The cost of shipping does crop up, this is the cost of a forty foot container we just sent a forty foot container from the USA to the UK
We are located around 120 miles from Norfolk Virginia.
We crate and load ourselves and have a forklift and loading dock at both ends.
The costs were ocean freight $660
Road freight to our US location $1200
UK road freight to our place in the West Midlands 380 UK pounds
Documentation around $250
The vessel way a day late leaving Norfolk but arrived on time in the UK.

Who did you use?
We would have way less stuff than that, but would need them to do all the crating/loading etc.
