Shipping Container to India
Calculate shipping rates for containers to India with our easy-to-use rate calculator.
The cost of shipping a container from India to the USA varies depending on container size, shipping route, and current market rates. As of 2024, you can expect to pay between $2,000 and $4,000 for a 20-foot container and $3,000 to $5,000 for a 40-foot container.
Just $896 gets you a cargo-worthy 20-footer in the same area. The price of a 40ft Costo container ranges from $1,288 in Nhava Sheva to $1,507 in Mundra. Compared to brand-new containers, the cost difference is substantial, yet these used ones will also carry your items securely.
But for a 40 feet container, the cost can vary from $1641.81 to $1814.64. In the above example, we considered Mumbai a port of loading (POL) and San Francisco a port of discharge (POD). Regarding less-than-container load (LCL) charges, it will cost $1575.33-1741.16 for 100 kg/cm. This is just a rough idea of how shipping costs can be applied.
A new 20-foot container at Nhava Sheva (Mumbai) can set you back about $2,118 if you want the highest quality. Used containers, on the other hand, are a great option for those hoping to save costs. Just $896 gets you a cargo-worthy 20-footer in the same area. The price of a 40ft Costo container ranges from $1,288 in Nhava Sheva to $1,507 in Mundra.
