I run two small stores on a beach. We never focused on creating a website or online sales because it didn’t seem like it would be worth it, considering most customers buy our items as a souvenir after visiting our beaches.
However, now I am getting a lot of requests for shipping since my state is not allowing out-of-staters in unless they quarantine for 14 days.
I have been shipping through USPS and the shipping can get pretty expensive. I have been using priority mail shipping because it only costs a little more than regular shipping and includes insurance.
None of my customers have complained about the shipping price but I would like to get it down if possible. For example it costs $8.40 to ship a small padded envelope that would fit one or two tshirts and $15.05 to ship a medium box that could fit maybe 5 or 6 tshirts.
Have any of you used Shippo or any other similar website to help get shipping costs down? Any advice is appreciated!
Hey people,
Been using GoShippo for years now to create shipping labels for two WooCommerce stores. Two primary reasons for using GoShippo were 1) WC Integration and 2) no monthly fee. In the past month, they added a 30 label limit to their free plan, so now I am looking for alternatives.
Context: One site ships small items exclusively USPS, 40-50 shipments per month. Other site ships small and large items USPS or UPS, 30-50 shipments per month
One promising option is Pirate Ship, but I am still open to others. Any suggestions for a shipping label service that offers WooCommerce integration with no monthly fee and limit?
Alternative question: do subscription services pay for themselves with cheaper rates? If so, what is your favorite?
Thanks!
