Shipping Costs

RE: [spiers] Shipping Costs

The amount you got must be kidding. According to my current shipping agent a
regular 20ft container from Shanghai China to Oakland is about $2000. I can
give you my agent's contact info if you need.

Subject: [spiers] Shipping Costs


I am in the process of estimating costs on a new product. I need to
ship by container from Shanghi China to Oakland, CA. This will be my
first experience using ship containers. I have been given an
estimate of $10,800 for 20ft of container space from the
manufacturor. This seems awful high to me. Anybody have any
experience in shipping by containers? I could use any advice on how
to obtain competitive rates from reliable shippers.

Thanks In Adavance
