What’s The Cheapest Way To Send Parcels?

A high shipping charge can be a big turn-off to potential customers so most sellers decide to offer free shipping.

It is therefore important to be able to determine the cheapest way to send a parcel. This can help you to convert shipping-cost-sensitive shoppers and also remain profitable at the same time.

Here, we discuss the 3 crucial factors to consider when determining the cheapest way to deliver a parcel.

#1 - Keep Your Parcel Light & Small

The size and weight of your parcel is a crucial factor to consider when finding the cheapest way for parcel delivery. And your chosen packaging materials will also impact its shipping rate.
Make sure your packaging box is only a little bigger than the item and use a lightweight material such as bubble wrap or tissue to fill up the gaps to avoid any damage during the delivery transit.

#2 - Quote & Book With Accurate Weight

Always remember you should measure both volumetric weight and actual weight, then quote with whichever is higher for courier booking.

Although this isn’t always guaranteed to be the cheapest way to deliver a parcel, it will help to avoid the surcharge at normal rate on the additional misdeclared weight.

#3 - Book A Parcel Within Promo Duration
