Moving to US

Hi, Im moving to DC in a few months and I wanted to ask if anyone has a good suggestion/options for sending boxes to US? I dont have any furniture or anything, just 1-2 boxes of stuff probably. 


Was just wondering what cheap options are available.


Thnx.

If the boxes are not too big, transportation by air is the best option not too expensive and fast. Check airline compainies Cargo.


You can ship them to Baltimore (an 1hour from DC) but it might take longer.


I leave in DC and arrived in Geneva 3 days ago

yes. i found the info from the same website but remembered it as lower. Perhaps I was looking at 20kg. 


Good luck! 


I may have to move back to US as well.
