Is this a one time shippment or will you be shipping regularly for a business?
For a one-time shipping, you can go to the post-office or a retail shipping outlet and buy a box and packing materials (ie. bubble wrap). They can then ship the item to where you need it. I suggest requesting insurance on the package from USPS when you ship. It can be included in the shipping price. The price for shipping will vary depending upon the speed you need the package to arrive. |

Most post offices have boxes you can buy. If you're shipping it through the post office just put the item in a box (with some form of padding, something to keep it from rattling around). Tape it up (With packing tape, DO NOT USE scotch tape). Then go to the post office, ask for a label to put on it, you write in the address (much like you were sending a letter) and they tell you how much postage costs (I beleive it's usually around $3-$5). YOu hand them money, they take your box, and being that it's the US Postal Service you have a 50/50 chance of your box actually arriving at it's destination intact. |

A UPS Store would be the best place. But simply going to the Post Office works also. |

You can get free shipping supplies from http://www.usps.com if you make a free account. That is where I get most of my supplies. You can get boxes, labels... things of all sorts for free... online but I'm not sure about if you can get them for free in the USPS store. But you can also get them at UPS and FedEx stores as well for a fee. |

Go to a UPS store. They'll have boxes, wrapping supplies, labels and everything else to send it on its way. And for a fee they'll mail it for you. |

You can go to a UPS Store or FedEx Kinkos Store.
If you go to the post office, they also have supplies for packaging.
Just be aware that they will charge you for the supplies such as tape, boxes.
You can get free boxes from the carriers but they have limitations. |

Just go to your local Post Office, the United States Postal Service, they have all the supplies (boxes, tape, etc.) for you to ship you cell phones. And they can answer any questions you have. To find out where the nearest Postal Office is to you just call their toll free number 1-866-545-USPS (8777). |

Umm...the post office? You can do priority mail, or go to UPS I'd assume...also if you have a Long's nearby they also have a shipping center that's where I go, and down one of the aisles they have all different boxes of different sizes to grab while you're there and you can choose faster shipping if you'd like...hope that's a little bit helpful... |

if you go to your local post office they have a box for 8 bucks any weight. cell phones are light so you may not need to use this, but you could probably fit ten inside. |

go to a FEDEX, or UPS shop located close to your home. Also you can look up online where there are places that work with these 2 companies. Also check out DHL, but their a lil costly $$$$$. all these companies have boxes so you shouldn't too much to worry about with that. but remember they will charge you for the box. |

Yes. You can go to the post office, or a shipping store for FedEx or UPS. They'll give you boxes. You can also go to their websites to print labels and order supplies and schedule a pickup. (I'm not sure the post office will send you boxes, but you can go to the post office and get them there. The companies will give you boxes.) |

Hello,
If you want to ship USPS here are some tips!
You can order FREE boxes on USPS.com
WHEN shipping, always pay the extra for Signature Confirmation, this is the ONLY way to insure your cellphones were delivered! I have had a couple customers claim they didn't get their merchandise, they know how to work the system. IT is well worth the extra couple bucks.
ORDER all of your postage on line. I use PayPal, or directly from USPS, it has a discounted rate, verses buying the postage in person at USPS>
IF you want to avoid weighing and buying a postage scale, ORDER the USPS Flat Rate Boxes, it is a flat fee! You won't have to worry about the weight!
USPS, will send these boxes right to you for free!
Hope this helps! This would be the CHEAPEST and easiest way to ship.
UPS and FedEx are great, but if the boxes you ship only weigh 1-4 pounds they are much more expensive to ship with!
SIGN up with SquareTrade.com, you can offer extended warranties, and get some cash back if people buy them!
Auctiva.com has DISCOUNTED insurance rates for shipping too, but you would have to make the sale on eBay to qualify. This website is free to join and has nice templates, the insurance is not free but 1/4 of the cost from the actual shipping co.
GOOD luck in your sales! Let me know if you need help! |
