Calculating shipping costs for outdoor furniture from our factory to your warehouse involves several key factors. First, we determine the total cubic volume (CBM) of your order by measuring the packaged dimensions. Most outdoor furniture ships via sea freight in 20-foot or 40-foot containers. We provide a standard quote based on current market rates for your chosen port of destination.
The final cost is influenced by your selected Incoterms. For example, under FOB terms, you cover main freight and insurance from the port of loading. Additional charges may include customs clearance, inland transportation to your warehouse, and any handling fees. We recommend sharing your warehouse location and required delivery timeline for a precise, all-inclusive quotation. Proper packaging and palletization are crucial to minimize damage and optimize container space, directly affecting overall freight expenses.
