ibjoe Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 Hi all. Anyone have experience or ideas about shipping from Thailand to USA? We have one or two boxes of books, maybe 40kg total. Looking for low cost option, with not more than a few weeks shipping time. Suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retarius Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 Why not get quotes from a few shippers? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Drake Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 It's been so long since I shipped a load of books like this that I don't know if the service is still available. But there used to be book bags you could ship books. They were like canvas military duffle bags. Prices were low but it might take 3 months to receive the shipment. I used to ship them from Germany to the US. But this was a long time ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started doing that, with unsatisfactory results, then got the idea that perhaps other members here might have had positive experiences to share. Seems shipping costs will be expensive, maybe best bet will be just book extra luggage on my next flight to USA. Thank you all responders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
