Cheapest way to ship large packages to another US state

The cheapest way to ship large packages within the US is via one of our Parcel Monkey Ground services provided by FedEx. The transit time will be longer than an expedited service, but if your package isn't time sensitive, ground services are the most cost-effective method of transport for large packages. 

You can book a courier to come and pick up your package or you can drop off at any FedEx store if it’s no heavier than 70 lbs.

For really large items, our Ground Pick Up Heavy service, operated by FedEx, will collect from your home or work address and ship almost anywhere in the US in 5 business days.
