somewhere on there is a shipping calculator . You'll need both zips, weight and size

If it's something that your looking to ship then weigh it and get an overall dimension. I believe the United States Postal Service ( USPS ) has their own website where you can enter the dimensions and weight and you can get a price. If the item is something small enough,then you can go to the Post Office and get free boxes that are called Fixed rate boxes.If you can fit it in the box,you pay a fixed rate which is usually very reasonable.Your other options would be places like UPS or Fed Ex but they are usually much more money.

Make sure you don't go over the measurements for length and width. The up charge is unreal.

Try to keep the dimentions under 12". Over that you are charged a "dimentional weight" fee. Flat rate boxes arn't a very good deal unless your item is very heavy, still has to fit the supplied boxex though.
