Container Shipping Options to Sweden
We can get your container to Sweden in a few basic ways: exclusive container, shared container, and air freight. The one you select will depend on the number of goods you have, your budget, and your projected timeline. Here are the options we give our clients:
Consolidated Container
If you have a tight budget and are looking to keep costs down, share a container with other customers to divide the total price among all. While this option saves you cash, the container only ships when filled with everyone’s stuff. Because you have to wait, your container will take longer to arrive in Sweden.
Exclusive Container
While marked by a higher price tag, your container will arrive in Sweden sooner because you don’t have to wait for other people to fill the unit. You get a 20 or 40-foot container all to yourself.
Air Freight
If you are in a rush and want your household goods to arrive in Sweden in hours or days rather than weeks, go with air freight. This is our most expensive option.
All three options have their benefits and drawbacks, and we would be happy to discuss them all with you.
Destination Ports in Sweden
We service 10 main destination ports throughout Sweden, and they include:
✓ Gothenburg
✓ Vasteras
✓ Linkoping
✓ Helsingborg
✓ Uppsala
✓ Norrkoping
✓ Malmo
✓ Stockholm
✓ Jonkoping
✓ Orebro
Stockholm, the capital of Sweden, is one of the busiest and most popular ports we sail into, but the other nine ports get their fair share of business too. If you live further inland from these ports, rest assured we can connect you with the delivery of your goods.
Departure Ports in the USA
We have four main departure ports in the USA. The one you choose is usually the one you live closest to. If you don’t live close to any of these cities, we can drive your belongings to one of these ports for you.
✓ Los Angeles, CA
✓ Houston, TX
✓ Savannah, GA
✓ New Jersey, NJ
As an example, here’s how long it takes to get to Stockholm in Sweden from a few different ports in the U.S. As you can see, it can take between 43 and 50 days to ship a container here.
| Port of Origin | Port of Destination | Transit Time |
| Norfolk | Stockholm | 50 |
| New York | Stockholm | 48 |
| Louisville | Stockholm | 43 |
We know how badly you want your shipment to get here – that’s why we do our best to give you an accurate transit estimate at the time of booking.

How Long Does it Take to Ship a Container to Sweden?
It’s not an exact science and delays can crop up, so please be prepared. Your transit time will depend on the location of your chosen departure and destination ports (goods arrive in Sweden faster when shipped from the East Coast, and a bit more slowly when shipped from the West Coast.)
The shipping option you choose also influences the cost.
