Frequently Asked Questions

POPULARQuestions people are asking about shipping to Costa Rica
Question

How much does a 20 lb package cost to ship?

Answer

Shipping a 20 lb package costs roughly $20-$40 for ground services (UPS, FedEx, USPS Ground Advantage) for shorter distances, but can range from $13 to over $100+ for faster or international options, depending heavily on the carrier, speed, and distance (zone). USPS Ground Advantage is often economical, while faster FedEx/UPS options like Next Day Air become much pricier, and sometimes splitting into lighter boxes (under 20 lbs) can be cheaper with USPS.
