The average delivery time is about 65 days, depending on the route and port conditions. Air freight is the ideal choice for urgent shipments. We use regular flights from China (via Hong Kong, Guangzhou, Shenzhen) to the USA. Average delivery time is about 20 days.

Implemented cases

  • Case 1
Case
Hm..yes
  • Direction: China - USA
  • Cargo: clothing accessories (flask pouches, carabiners)

We faced a situation where the cargo specifications provided by the supplier in China did not match the actual characteristics of the cargo. Consequently, there was a possibility of overpaying for delivery because the cargo volume turned out to be greater than what was initially stated in the order. 

DiFFreight decided to transport the cargo to their warehouse for on-site inspection, re-measurement, and photo report to resolve a discrepancy in the cargo parameters. This step helped accurately determine the dimensions and weight of the cargo, which further established its compliance with the parameters declared by the supplier.

This decision prevented overpayment for delivery and ensured accuracy and honesty in interaction with the client. The client received a clear photo report and up-to-date data about his cargo, which positively impacted business relationships with the logistics company DiFFreight.

I would like to express my gratitude towards DiFFreight for their exceptional professionalism and efficiency in resolving the issues during my shipment from China to the USA. Thanks to their efforts, I received my shipment on time without incurring additional costs. DiFFreight is an excellent logistics partner that prioritizes its customers' interests and can effectively resolve any logistical difficulties. I highly recommend them to anyone seeking a reliable logistics partner.

Advantages of International Freight Shipping China - USA

International freight shipping between China and the USA is one of the largest and most rapidly developing trade routes in the world. This is well-founded, as shipping cargo from China to the USA offers numerous benefits for importers:

  1. Economic advantages. The cost of production in China is relatively low, allowing importers to benefit from low product prices, especially with wholesale purchases. Additionally, China offers a vast selection of manufacturers for various goods, making it possible to find suppliers with an optimal balance of price and quality. Moreover, the developed transportation infrastructure ensures relatively fast delivery of goods from China to the USA.
  2. Logistical Advantages. There are a large number of regular flights between China and the United States, allowing for the optimal choice of delivery options in terms of timing and cost. These may include sea vessels or air delivery. This way, the most suitable option can be chosen depending on the characteristics of the cargo and the desired delivery timeframes.
  3. Commercial Advantages. The American market is one of the largest in the world, offering companies extensive opportunities for business expansion. At the same time, low production costs and efficient logistics increase sales profits, and the development of promising trade relations with China helps strengthen business ties and create new partnerships. This is extremely important for the successful conduct of a trading business. 

Additional Advantages:

  • High product quality. Many Chinese manufacturers, especially large factories, offer high-quality products that meet international standards.
  • Flexible cooperation terms. Suppliers often accommodate potential clients by offering individualized cooperation terms.
  • Customization options. Buyers can order product customization for their brand or to align with the latest trends. 

China’s vast market opens significant retail opportunities for sellers in the USA and other countries worldwide. 

Shipping Goods from China to the USA: What Problems Can DiFFreight Solve

Although the route is popular, shipping involves challenges. Which of them can we solve thanks to our professionalism and experience:

  • Delivery delays → DiFFreight optimizes shipments and routes so that the cargo crosses the ocean in the shortest time. This saves on delivery itself and on warehouse storage.

  • Lack of support → our managers keep you informed at every stage of delivery. For any questions, contact our 24/7 support.
