Choose a service
Start with parcel eligibility, then the date the recipient needs, then total cost. If both services meet the need, compare their prices and terms. A faster option is useful when its actual commitment better fits the shipment.
Compare available options
Services offered by the platform depend on the route, parcel, account and available carriers. A quote is an estimate for those inputs; confirm options, taxes, duties and later adjustments before purchase.
