DHL... Sounds expensive but sure is safe & fast :)

Check with your airlines first. When I came to Doha from US in Qatar Airways, I checked in 4 large bags, 2 of them were free of charge. The extra 2 were charged 200 dollars each, which is far less than the quote I received from US and other international freight agencies.

Coincidentally I am working for a freight-forwarding company. I can provide you services for your unaccompanied cargo to the US, with customs forms. Pls send us an email at [email protected] so we can provide you detailed rates and procedures, as US Customs is quite strict for unaccompanied cargoes. Thanks.
