Appliances Shipping Cost from Cedar Rapids, Iowa to Phoenix, Arizona

The cheapest way to ship boxes to another state depends on weight and distance: USPS is usually best for lighter items (under 20 lbs) or heavy items in Flat Rate boxes, while UPS/FedEx Ground often beats USPS for heavier, oversized boxes (over 40 lbs), and using a discount platform like Pirate Ship offers savings on all carriers. For very bulky or non-urgent moves, consider freight/marketplace options like uShip or bus services, and consolidate multiple boxes with UPS/FedEx for better multi-piece rates.

To ship a single piece of furniture across long distances, choose a parcel carrier like UPS or USPS for small items. For larger pieces, such as beds or sofas, consider a freight service offering LTL (Less Than Truckload) shipping—it's cost-effective, and your furniture will be transported with other loads.

USPS takes one to five business days to deliver regular mail to another state. However, you can use many other options to help your items arrive faster, like Priority Mail and Priority Mail Express.
