From China
How much does it cost to bring a Container from china to canada?
I wonder i much that can cost to bring a 40 feet container from china to canada ( or USA if you know). how much can i expect for customs clearance?
if the container goes to Montreal,Quebec is it better to bring by train or by truck?
With minimal details, a best approximation is as follows:
The cost to bring a 40' container from Shanghai to USA (LAX port - Los Angeles) can run between $3,500 - 4,500 for ocean charges. Customs clearance fees generally fall around 110-150. You also have to factor in PSS (peak season surcharges), and any extras such as Shanghai port charges, security charges, advanced notification fees, etc.
If you contact a freight forwarder with your shipper and consignee information they can give you a quote. Have them break your quote down so You Can see what they are charging for each cost. Then you can compare them to each other and see who is the cheapest or possibly negotiate for better rates.
Some good companies are: Expeditors, Exel, CH Robinson, UPS Supply Chain Solutions.
The price will vary depending on the company. Also price varies depending on volume. If you ship alot, they will give you discounts and you have more negotiating room.
Containers go to the major ports. They are then trucked to final destination. It is cheaper if done by rail, however it is slower. Trucking can cost alot more money because oftentimes the chassis have to switched out on the container, you have to find a driver willing to go, the driver has to get an appointment to pick up the container at the pier, etc. If you are in a time crunch, then trucking is quicker, otherwise its generally more cost effective to have containers delivered to the rail yard closest the destination. Then drayed to the consignee's address.
