Cheap ground shipping USA

Ground Drop Off is one of our cheapest US domestic ground services, allowing customers to send items up to 150lbs between states, without paying extortionate shipping fees.

With the convenience and flexibility to drop off your package at your local FedEx store, Ground Drop Off is a popular choice for both individuals and businesses. What’s more, if you book Ground Drop Off with Parcel Monkey, our discounted prices are cheaper than shipping items through the Post Office.

Cheap shipping for oversized items

Our domestic ground shipping services are ideal for shipping oversized items which usually incur costly shipping fees due to size and weight.

We have helped customers courier a range of items such as tents, gym equipment, clothing, luggage, golf clubs, auto parts and personal goods.

However, we always advise that you check our prohibited and restricted items list before you book a shipment. These are items which have been restricted or prohibited by our carrier partners and may be returned or carried on a non-compensation basis.

  • What is volumetric weight?

    The price for shipping a package depends not only on where you are shipping to, but also the volumetric weight, which is based on weight and dimensions. This means the volumetric weight may exceed the actual weight of the parcel, as it factors in how much space your item is likely to take up in the delivery network including vans and aircraft.

    Our shipping calculator works the volumetric weight out for you, so please provide accurate details when you want to get a shipping price so we can price the cost of delivery up properly. If you do not declare all the package details correctly, you can run into hefty additional charges and shipping delays.

  • How should I package my parcel?

    All packages should be packed well enough to be transported safely across long distances, potentially being passed through a range of vehicles and warehouses depending on which destination you are shipping to. Always check your items are not prohibited or restrcited too, 

    • Use a sturdy, heavy duty cardboard box to prevent any damage to the goods inside.

    • If the items inside are fragile, make sure they are wrapped separately. Fill any spaces in the box with polystyrene chips. 

    • Seal any openings of the box with layers of tape to ensure the box does not open.

    • Securely attach all shipping labels and customs documents provided by Parcel Monkey.
