How much would it cost to ship a package?

Question

I need to ship a home PC computer from Charlotte NC to Mahomet Illinois. How much do you think it would cost? UPS won't tell me anything unless I bring it in. I don't want to disassemble it if not necessary.

Answer 1

about $30 at usps

Answer 2

You can get an estimate on shipping cost and transit time by going to the UPS web site.  Here is the link:  https://wwwapps.ups.com/ctc/request?loc=...  They will provide you with all of the available shipping options, the cost and the transit time based on the information that you enter about your shipment.  

You can select either a "quick time and cost quote" or a "detailed time and cost quote".  For the detailed quote you are required to enter more information which will make the quote more accurate.  

You will need to know the approximate total weight of your computer and components that you are shipping.  For the detailed quote you will also need to know the approximate dimensions of the box you will use for shipping the computer.  

I recommend using the detailed time and cost quote because it covers everything that you would be asked if you actually went to the UPS store.
