Quick UPS Shipping Question

[darren24]

Is there a cheaper way to ship corals UPS than going to one of their retail Mail Boxes etc. / UPS stores? Can I go straight to a UPS hub? Last time I shipped a small box with coral (weighed about 4 lbs) it was like $65 at their retail strip mall store.

Thanks.

I've shipped from their "hub" before. Although it is supposed to be the same price everywhere.

Yea I see most places (online vendors) quote $45-$50 but my last shipment was over $60. It was a small box like 7 x 7.

Thanks.

I am a Fedex shipper with an account. When I prepare and print my labels from home I save 15% off their published rates. My account was free.
