Appliances Shipping Cost from Dublin to Virginia Beach, Virginia

In general, for an appliance shipping service, you can expect to pay around $1.81 per mile for shorter trips and $0.59 per mile for longer journeys.

Shipping a 50-pound box typically costs between $40 and $130+ for ground services, depending heavily on distance, carrier (FedEx Ground, UPS Ground, or USPS Ground Advantage are common choices), and any discounts, with FedEx often slightly cheaper for heavy items, while USPS can be good for shorter distances. For faster options, expect costs to jump significantly to over $100, sometimes much more.

The cheapest way to ship heavy items (70-150 lbs) is usually UPS Ground or FedEx Ground, with UPS often having a slight edge for heavy domestic packages, but always compare real-time quotes as prices vary by distance and size; for items over 150 lbs, Freight Shipping (LTL) is your best bet, while USPS is great for lighter heavy items (under 70 lbs). Always use a third-party shipping platform like PirateShip for potential discounts, and remember heavy items over 70 lbs incur surcharges and need special handling stickers.
