Shipping Costs and Routes
Choose a shipping option for the parcel you actually plan to send. Start with the packed parcel, destination and eligible routes before comparing shipping estimates.
Which routes can take these goods?
Start with the destination and the kinds of goods in the parcel. Compare only routes that accept the goods, parcel size and destination.
Destination and item restrictions
Destination and goods type narrow the available choices. An item may need special handling or a different service.
Parcel limits
A route can also set limits for the package itself. Use the packed parcel, not an isolated product listing, for this decision.
Use the same parcel for each estimate
Kakobuy's Estimate asks for destination, weight in grams, goods type and dimensions. Use comparable inputs across routes; replacing a guess with packaged measurements can change the result.
Destination, goods type and grams
The Estimate fields describe the shipment you are considering. Keep the destination, goods type and weight consistent when looking at alternatives.
Before and after packing
Before packing, weight and dimensions are planning inputs. After packing, the parcel has measured values that may support a better comparison.
Read weight and size together
A route may use the measured weight or a size-based calculation. The rule depends on that route, so there is no one divisor or charge that fits every service.
Packed weight
Packed weight includes the goods and the material used to send them.
Dimensions and the route's calculation
The parcel's dimensions can matter even when the goods themselves are light. Read the calculation shown with the route.
Compare what each route includes
Read what the option includes as well as its price. Coverage, tracking and handling terms can differ, and additional services may be selected later with the parcel payment.
Included services and extra charges
Distinguish the shipping charge from added parcel services or other costs shown at checkout.
Tracking and insurance scope
Look at tracking, insurance or protection terms, and the route's estimated delivery time together. Compare the estimated delivery time together with tracking coverage, insurance or protection terms.
Prepare the destination details
Enter accurate item and destination details before dispatch. Destination-specific declaration and tax questions are part of planning; a customs notice after the parcel is moving belongs to delivery support.
Accurate item information and declaration
Describe the parcel contents accurately when completing declaration information.
Destination-specific questions
Import, tax and declaration requirements vary by destination. Use the current rules shown for the actual country and shipping route.
