Question

Can anyone please let me know what is the cheapest way to send a parcel from USA to Japan?

Answer 1

The best and cheapest way is to use the US post office air mail.  The fastest way is Fedex, but the price is high.  The cheapest way is to send UPS surface mail, but this means it will take up to 2 months since it will be sent by ship.  I usually have things sent by US Post Office since it has the best cost/time balance.

Costs depend on weight and size of package.

Answer 2

USPS is the cheapest...

But UPS, DHL, and FeDex are faster... (Very expensive though)
