The cheapest way to ship heavy items

The cheapest way to ship a heavy package in the US is via one of our popular Parcel Monkey Ground Shipping Services, operated by FedEx, or our discounted UPS Ground service.

The transit times for ground shipping are longer than expedited services (1-5 business days), but if your delivery isn’t time-sensitive you can significantly reduce your delivery costs on heavy items by choosing this economy option.

Our popular ground shipping services include:

  • Parcel Monkey Ground - Drop off and pick up services for items up to 152lbs
  • UPS Ground - Drop off and pick up services for items up to 149lbs
  • Parcel Monkey Overnight - Next day delivery items up to 152lbs
