price to ship a package depends on several factors, including the size, weight, and destination of the package. Major shipping carriers such as USPS, UPS, FedEx, and DHL have different pricing structures based on these variables. For domestic shipments, the cost can range from a few dollars for small, light packages to much higher rates for larger or heavier items. International shipping costs are generally more expensive due to the added distance and customs procedures. Customers can estimate shipping prices through the carriers’ online calculators by entering package details and destination.
