Priority Express, Two Day, Ground or Freight: choosing a shipping service

The right service depends on three things: how soon the shipment needs to arrive, how big it is and what you want to spend. Here is how our options compare.

Priority Express: when the deadline matters most

Priority Express is our fastest domestic option, scheduled for the next business day with priority handling at every hub. Choose it for time-critical documents, parts or orders.

Two Day: fast without the next-day premium

Two Day suits parcels that need to arrive this week but not tomorrow. It costs less than Priority Express and is quicker than Ground.

Ground: the everyday choice

Ground moves by road between our domestic hubs in three to five business days. It is the most economical way to ship regular parcels.

Freight: pallets and full loads

For palletized or full-load cargo, our Freight service coordinates the right lane and a scheduled delivery window. Freight has a higher starting price but a lower per-pound rate, so it becomes the better value as weight goes up.
