Calculate FedEx shipping rates
How to calculate FedEx shipping rates
Step 1
Enter package information
Add your package weight and dimensions. FedEx prices most packages by size as well as weight, so accurate measurements give you a more accurate quote.
Step 2
Provide origin & destination
Add the origin and destination ZIP codes. FedEx prices by zone, so the distance between them changes the rate.
Step 3
Compare FedEx service options
See the FedEx services available for your package, from Ground to overnight, and compare price and delivery time against USPS and UPS before you choose.
Popular FedEx services explained
FedEx Ground® and FedEx Home Delivery®
Cost-effective delivery for non-urgent packages in 1–5 business days within the contiguous U.S. FedEx Ground delivers to businesses; FedEx Home Delivery delivers to homes, including on Saturdays.
FedEx Ground® Economy
A low-cost option for lightweight, non-urgent residential shipments, typically delivered in 2–7 business days. Often the cheapest FedEx service for small ecommerce orders.
FedEx Express Saver® and FedEx 2Day®
Faster delivery without paying for overnight. FedEx Express Saver delivers in three business days and FedEx 2Day in two.
FedEx Standard Overnight® and FedEx Priority Overnight®
Next-business-day delivery for urgent packages. FedEx Priority Overnight arrives in the morning to most business addresses; FedEx Standard Overnight arrives later in the day for less.
Factors that affect FedEx shipping costs
Weight & dimensions
FedEx charges the greater of actual weight and dimensional (DIM) weight.
Distance & zones
FedEx prices by zone. The farther your package travels, the higher the rate.
Service speed
Express and overnight services cost more than FedEx Ground.
Extras & add-ons
Residential delivery, signature options, declared value, and fuel surcharges can add to the final price.
Tips for lowering FedEx shipping costs
Use the right packaging
Pick the smallest box that fits. A snug box keeps your DIM weight, and your rate, down.
Look at FedEx One Rate®
FedEx One Rate charges one price by box size for express shipments up to 50 lb, so heavy items in FedEx packaging can cost less.
Compare multiple services
Ground Economy or Express Saver often costs far less than overnight. Check whether your delivery date really needs the faster service.
