Baggage to the USA: Simplify Your Move

Sending your baggage to the USA is a great option if you’re moving to the States for work, studying or taking a sabbatical. It’s also a great way to move your boxes and luggage if you’re going on an extended holiday. Our international baggage shipping service takes care of everything, from packing to customs for baggage to the USA.

Why Choose Anglo Pacific for Baggage to the USA?

The USA is a large and diverse country with different states having their own customs regulations. Shipping your luggage or boxes is a great way to avoid delays and unexpected costs. Here’s why you should consider sending your baggage to the USA:

  • Excess Luggage Fees: Airlines charge hefty fees for excess luggage, especially for large or bulky items. Shipping your belongings saves you from paying additional fees for overweight or oversized luggage.
  • Travel Light: If you’re moving to the USA or staying for an extended period, sending your luggage or household effects gives you the freedom to travel without the hassle of excess baggage.
  • Customs Clearance: The USA has strict customs regulations in place, with restrictions on items like food, alcohol and electricals. Choose an experienced baggage shipping company to ensure your items meet US customs regulations.

We ship over 20,000 consignments to the USA every year, so we know what it takes to get your baggage shipping to the USA running smoothly.

How it Works

Sending your baggage to the USA is a straightforward process. We’ve broken it down into simple steps to make your experience with us as smooth as possible:

  • Get a Quote: Request an instant quote based on your shipment size, destination and special requirements.
  • Collection: We’ll collect your luggage or boxes from your UK home or office at a time that suits you.
  • Delivery: Your luggage will be delivered directly to your home in the USA, whether you’re heading to New York, LA, Chicago or anywhere else.

Wherever you’re headed in the USA, we’ll get your belongings to you quickly and safely, so you can settle into your new home.

Save Money and Avoid Airport Chaos

Sending your luggage to the USA can be more cost-effective than paying for excess luggage at the airport. Here’s why:

  • Fixed Pricing: Unlike airlines, we charge based on shipment size, not weight. This means you know exactly how much your baggage shipping to the USA will cost, without any surprise fees.
  • Avoid Airport Chaos: Airports like John F. Kennedy (JFK) in New York, LA International (LAX) or O’Hare in Chicago can be overwhelming, especially if you’re lugging oversized or heavy luggage. Shipping your baggage saves you from long check-in lines, baggage claims and the hassle of multiple pieces of luggage.
  • Timely Delivery: Whether you’re heading to a busy city like New York or LA or a more rural area, we’ll get your belongings to you quickly, so you can focus on settling into your new home.

Luggage Shipping Options

We offer both air and sea freight options for shipping your luggage and boxes to the USA, depending on your timeframe and budget.

  • Sea Freight: Our most cost-effective option is ideal for larger or less urgent shipments. Perfect for sending household effects, personal belongings or bulk luggage, sea freight takes around 6-8 weeks to major ports, depending on the destination.
  • Air Freight: Our fastest option delivers your belongings to the USA in as little as 5-7 days. Ideal for urgent shipments or personal luggage, air freight gets your items to you quickly.

Full-Service Baggage Shipping

Our full-service baggage shipping option takes care of everything for you:

  • Packing Materials: We supply all the packing materials you’ll need to protect your belongings, including industry-standard boxes and bubble wrap.
  • Door-to-Door Service: We handle door-to-door shipping, collecting your luggage or boxes from your UK home or office and delivering them directly to your new home or office in the USA.
  • Customs Handling: Our team handles all customs documentation for you, ensuring your items clear quickly and on-time.

How Long Does Baggage Shipping to the USA Take?

The time it takes to deliver your baggage or boxes to the USA depends on your chosen shipping method:

  • Air Freight: Our fastest option, delivering your belongings in 5-7 days.
  • Sea Freight: Takes around 6-8 weeks for delivery, but is a cost-effective option for larger or less urgent shipments.

If you need your belongings in a hurry, air freight is the way to go. For larger volumes or if you can wait, sea freight is a more cost-effective option.

Boxes to the USA: Perfect for Bulky or Fragile Items

Sending boxes to the USA is a great way to ship a range of items, from books and clothing to electronics and fragile goods. If you have larger items or want to consolidate your belongings, boxes are the way to go.

Here’s how to ship boxes to the USA:

  • Sturdy Boxes: Our double-walled boxes can withstand the weight of your items.
  • Packing: We wrap fragile items in bubble wrap or foam. Larger items are packed tightly to prevent movement during transit.
  • Labelling: Clearly mark each box with your full name, contact details and destination address in the USA to avoid any delivery issues.

Shipping boxes to the USA is the perfect way to send bulk quantities of items. Whether you’re moving household goods, personal effects or a combination of both, we guarantee your shipment arrives safely and securely.
