Shipping Tips for Mother’s Day

Choose Lightweight, Compact Gifts

When shipping overseas, weight and dimension are both important. The heavier a package is, the more it will cost to ship. However, just because a package is light doesn’t mean the shipping fees will be low. Since most carriers calculate costs based on dimensional weight, larger packages will have higher shipping fees because they take up more room. Keep this in mind when choosing what to ship on Mother’s Day, and opt for small, lightweight gifts that still hold plenty of meaning like customized jewelry.

Avoid Restricted Items

Some items cannot be shipped with Boundr, so to avoid your packages being returned or discarded, double check our list of prohibited and restricted goods to make sure your items aren’t on the list.

Compare Carriers & Delivery Times

With Boundr, you can compare carriers and choose the best option based on price and delivery time. If you plan ahead and choose a shipping option that may take longer to arrive, you can save money without worrying about whether your gifts will arrive on time. If you need your items shipped in a hurry, there’s still great options for fast and reliable delivery, but you might end up paying more.

Consolidate Shipments When Possible

Save money by sending multiple gifts or essentials all in one package. If mom and grandma are close to one another, you can ship gifts for both to one address instead of splitting them up, or if you were planning to ship packages to other family members overseas you can pack them with your Mother’s Day gifts to save on shipping costs.

Take Advantage of Package Tracking

You can track your package every step of the way to ensure that it arrives on time and gets to mom safe and sound.

Opt for Add-Ons

If you’re sending a lightweight gift but feel like it’s not quite enough, add a handwritten note or a QR code for a video message to make the gift feel more special and personalized while still saving on postage.
