Shipping from New Mexico to United States

Shipping from Mexico to the U.S. varies widely in price, from around $30 for small USPS packages (flat rate) to hundreds or thousands for larger freight, depending heavily on speed (days vs. weeks), weight/size, and method (air, truck, sea). Expect basic small parcels to start around $30-$60 via USPS, while larger shipments might cost $0.20-$0.40/lb for LTL (truck), $1,200-$3,500/container for ocean, or $3-$6/kg for air freight, with significant potential for customs fees and duties.

Express shipping services can deliver parcels within 24 to 72 hours, not including time needed for customs clearance which can add additional delays (Eurosender). For less urgent deliveries, standard shipping options are available that might take longer but will be cost-effective.

Yes, Mexico can ship to the U.S., but it involves specific documentation like commercial invoices, packing lists, and potentially NAFTA certificates, requiring coordination between Mexican carriers, U.S. Customs brokers, and freight forwarders for smooth border crossing, with services available from major carriers like DHL, FedEx, or specialized logistics providers for parcels and larger freight.

International shipping means moving goods across national borders, from one country to another, involving complex steps like customs clearance, specific documentation, duties/tariffs, and using various transport modes (air, sea, road). It differs from domestic shipping by requiring compliance with different countries' laws, managing currency exchange, language barriers, and potentially higher costs, but it opens up global markets for businesses and consumers.

The cheapest way to ship internationally from the USA is typically USPS First-Class Package International Service (FCPIS) for lightweight items (under 4 lbs), offering rates from around $17.85, while USPS First-Class Mail International (for letters/postcards) is cheapest for documents. For slightly heavier or larger parcels, compare services like FedEx International Connect Plus, DHL eCommerce, or using platforms like Easyship, ShipStation, and Global Shopaholics to find discounts on carriers like FedEx and UPS.

USPS provides reliable and affordable international delivery to about 180 countries through Priority Mail International. Most Priority Mail International shipments include tracking and insurance: up to $100 for nonnegotiable documents and up to $200 for merchandise.

If you're looking for cheap postage to the USA, Parcelforce Global Priority is one of the cheapest ways to send a parcel to the US and you can buy this service at a discounted rate when you book online with Parcel Monkey.

The cheapest way to ship a package in the USA is usually USPS Ground Advantage for most items under 70 lbs or light items via First-Class, while heavier packages might find savings with discounted FedEx or UPS Ground/Home Delivery, especially when using shipping platforms for commercial rates; always compare rates using your package's weight, dimensions, and destination on carrier sites or comparison tools like Easyship or ShipStation.

It's cheaper to send light packages (under 2-5 lbs) with USPS, especially using Ground Advantage or Priority Mail, but UPS becomes more cost-effective for heavier (over 5-10 lbs) or bulkier items, particularly with their competitive Ground services, while also offering more reliable tracking and handling for valuable items despite extra surcharges. The best choice depends on weight, destination, speed needed, and value, so always compare rates on the carrier websites.
