When to Choose Budget Shipping
Budget shipping makes sense when you are not in a rush and your order value is under $150. The savings can be substantial — up to 75% compared to express options. For heavier hauls (5kg+), the per-kg savings multiply quickly.
Tips to Minimize Shipping Costs
- Consolidate multiple items into one shipment
- Remove shoe boxes and excess packaging at the warehouse
- Choose sea freight for very heavy orders (8kg+)
- Watch for seasonal shipping discounts during holidays
- Use rehearsal shipping to get exact weight estimates

Frequently Asked Questions
Is cheap shipping safe for expensive items?
For items over $100, we recommend at least EMS Standard or better. Budget lines have slightly higher loss rates, so the risk increases with item value.
Can I track budget shipping lines?
Yes, all lines offer tracking, but updates are less frequent. EUB typically updates every 3-5 days compared to DHL's real-time updates.
Do budget lines have weight limits?
Yes. EUB has a 2kg limit per package. For heavier orders, you'll need to split or upgrade to a line with higher limits.
