Shipping Cost from Indianapolis, Indiana to Calgary

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.

US to Canada shipping costs vary widely, from around $14 for light items via basic services like USPS First Class (6-10 days) to $30+ for faster or heavier packages, depending on carrier (USPS, UPS, FedEx), speed, weight, size, and potential duties/taxes, with options like USPS Priority Flat Rate starting around $30 and faster UPS Worldwide options starting near $24 but costing more for speed.

Generally, USPS is cheaper for lighter packages (under 2 lbs) to Canada, while UPS becomes more competitive or cheaper for heavier items, but UPS often incurs significant customs brokerage fees, making USPS generally more affordable overall, especially for individual shippers, though it's slower. Always compare real-time quotes for your specific package details, as rates vary, but USPS First Class or Priority Mail usually beats UPS's initial cost, while UPS Standard is good for heavier, cost-sensitive ground shipping.
