Choose the most cost-effective shipping options for your needs
Your customers don’t always need priority shipping, and FedEx has 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. When needed, take advantage of delivery flexibility and consider FedEx International Economy® to help you save money on import and export shipping.
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 Forgetting to add a value estimate in your shipping documents, incorrect delivery addresses or calculating an out of date freight price can cause unwanted headaches.
Learn which fees and surcharges apply to your shipment, or you can calculate your shipping costs quickly and easily online. Plus, you will be entitled for an additional 5% for arranging shipments online with FedEx Ship ManagerTM by joining the FedEx Ship More, Save More program using your credit card.
Pack your shipments efficiently to reduce cost
Efficient packaging protects your shipment without taking up any extra space, meaning you pay the lowest rate possible.
