Shipping from Maryland to Comoros

Shipping a 50 lb box typically costs $40 to $80+ for ground services, depending heavily on distance, carrier (USPS, UPS, FedEx), speed, and if you use your own box or flat-rate options, with USPS often cheapest for shorter distances and FedEx/UPS competitive for longer hauls, though expect added handling fees for over 50 lbs. Expect around $38-$65 (USPS Ground), $42-$72 (UPS Ground), or $41-$70 (FedEx Ground) for typical cross-country routes, plus potential surcharges.

For the absolute cheapest international shipping from the USA, especially for small, light items (under 4 lbs), USPS First-Class Package International is usually the winner, starting around $17, while for slightly heavier/faster, USPS Priority Mail International (Flat Rate Boxes can be great) and discounted services through platforms like Easyship or Parcel Monkey (often using carriers like DHL or FedEx Economy) offer big savings on bigger parcels, balancing cost and speed.
