Choose the most cost-effective shipping options for your needs

Your customers don’t always need priority shipping, and FedEx has shipping services options for pretty much any shipping scenario and budget. Keep your shipping costs in check by only opting for premium services, like next-morning or day-definite shipping, when there’s a clear and urgent need.

Head online and avoid budget surprises

No one likes being surprised by unexpected costs or surcharges. Forgetting to add a value estimate in your shipping documents, incorrect delivery addresses or calculating an out-of-date freight price can cause unwanted headaches.
