A note: LCL shipping to Japan is expensive mainly because Japan (like many other countries) requires ISPM#15 fumigation for wood packing materials. In this case, the ISPM#15 standard makes up nearly 50% of the total cost for shipping the first cubic meter. Here’s an up to date quotation based on the first and five cubic meters to the port of Yokohama. Rates valid ‘till the end of February, 2009:
