How Much Does It Cost To Ship A Container To Malaysia?

Malaysia Container Shipping Cost

Malaysia's 18th largest trading partner is the United States, which has permitted the refinement of container shipping throughout time. This industry has evolved with the aim to export industrial goods with the same level of ease and safety as home goods.

Our company, Three Movers is your finest alternative when it comes to shipping a container to anywhere in the world, including Malaysia. From customized budgeting advice to a variety of insurance products to packing, loading, and unloading services, we've got you covered.

What Are the Factors That Affect the Cost of Shipping?

It's critical to be conscious of your demands before hiring services, as it's easy to be misled in the process. Even if you are new to the phenomenon, our skilled international shipping team gives you a varied array of options and definitive knowledge to inform yourself.

Some of the important factors are:

  • Depending on the weight of the cargo, you can pick between 20', 20' cube, 40', 40' cube, and various sized containers. Before importing specific goods, such as broadcast receivers, unprocessed coral material, seeds, coins, and cash (counterfeit), etc., the Malaysian government requires licensing.
  • The expanse of 9,371 miles separates the United States and Malaysia. The cost of fuel per mile will be higher than in other nearby locations. You should also think about various insurance packages for freight rate peaks, which could wind up costing you a lot of money.
  • The months of June through October are the busiest for importing containers from the United States to Malaysia. Due to the approaching holidays, we experience a lot of demand and are have trouble provisioning resources. Shipping during these times could cost you much more than at any other time of the year.

What Size of Container Fits Your Needs?

For cost control, your requirements must be thoroughly explored and examined in advance. These depend on the nature and fragility of the cargo you're delivering.

Some of the types are:

  • High Cube Containers
  • Open Top Container
  • Thermal Container
  • Refrigerated ISO Container
  • Half-Height Container

Further divisions based on ownership:

  • Customers that prefer solo occupancy book Full Container Loads (FCL). These require less time to deliver and are completely within the control of the client. Their charges are higher, ranging from $837.00 for a 20' container to $920 for a 40' container.
  • LCL stands for Less Than A Container Load and is used for multiple occupancies. This type of container is spontaneous when loading packages, but due to the preference of other occupants, it may cause a delay in reaching the destination.

What Are the Types of Transport for Relocating Containers?

Our company provides services of air and sea freight shipping from the United States to Malaysia.

Air freight shipping takes less time, around 4-5 days, and is much more expensive. There are 20,000-pound weight limits, and you cannot load heavier cargos.

Waterways are substantially affordable and more weight-tolerant. However, they can take up to 56-47 days to arrive at their destination and should be avoided if time is of the essence. From Los Angeles to Penang, for example, their starting expenses can be as low as 920.00 dollars.
