Compare international moving companies. USPS, UPS and FedEx are the three major international shipping companies in the United States. You can get a free quote from each of these companies by calling their toll free numbers. In order to get an exact quote, you will need to measure length, width and height of the furniture and weigh it. Weighing your furniture may be difficult, but as long as you have the measurements and rough estimation of how much it weighs, the phone representative will be able to give you a quote.
Choose whether to ship your furniture by sea or by air. Shipping by sea is typically less expensive; however, shipping by air is usually quicker and is a better choice for fragile items because they will be handled less.
Call the shipping company of your choice and schedule a time for furniture pick up. While you're on the phone scheduling your pick up, the representative will also ask you for the shipping address and name of recipient, so have that information ready. The movers will take care of the rest when they arrive.
