Do you happen to know what is the cheapest way to ship a couple of heavy boxes from Italy to the US? We got a quote for around 500 EURO for 2 boxes of 30KG each. Does it sound reasonable?

Which carrier do you normally use for this kind of shipment?

Note: the shipment is brochures and merchandising (so no real commercial value).

Approx.ly $3,000 for 450KG (3qm), all inclusive, which means including

Pick-Up Charges
Handling
Italian Customs
AMS Fee
Air Freight
Fuel S
Sec S
Dest charges
C-TPAT Sec Fee
Door Delivery
Doc Fee
US Customs Clearance
Single Entry Bond
Duty (at cost)
Insurance

More paperwork for sure, but may be worth looking into it:

ALPI USA INC
tel  847-364-5342

Of course, the bigger the shipment the smaller the cost per kg/lb (almost half with this bigger shipment and this provider).
