How to compare quotes for shipping

Cheapest is not the same as best value for shipping. A slightly higher quote with a complete scope and no open-ended extras is often safer than the lowest figure with caveats.

Timing your shipping

Timing changes what you pay for shipping. Demand peaks around holidays, seasonal deadlines and the start of the busy season, and prices follow. Booking in a quieter window is one of the few levers that lowers the figure without cutting scope.
