Use the UPS Import/Export tool for country-specific info

When shipping internationally with UPS, you can plug in your origin country (the United States) and destination country to their Import/Export Regulations tool. You can also select the specific topic for which you're seeking more information from the provided menu 👍

Afterward, the UPS website will display specific information on what to expect when sending a package to that specific country. This can be helpful when determining if your package can be exempt from taxes as a "gift," at what value your recipient(s) will incur customs duties and import taxes, size and weight limits, the types of items your destination country prohibits, and more.

UPS pickups

Pirate Ship offers the ability to schedule pickups for your UPS packages! UPS offers their "On Call" pickup service for a fee, plus any applicable surcharges that might apply if they consider your location to be "Extra Rural" or a "Remote Area."

To get a quote for a UPS pickup once you purchase your label(s), just head to the Ship page, click Schedule Pickup, and then Request Pickup > UPS.

Same-day pickups vs next-day pickups

UPS pickups that you schedule on Pirate Ship will be set for the next business day after you purchase your shipping label(s), by default. Next-day pickups cost $4.25.

If you want your UPS packages picked up sooner, you can also schedule same-day pickups! Same-day UPS pickups cost $6, and availability is subject to local conditions, cut-off times, and carrier routes.

UPS labels don't come with money-back guarantees

One thing to remember is that the delivery timeframes listed above are simply estimates, and not guarantees 🙈 None of the UPS services on Pirate Ship come with money-back guarantees.

All UPS labels on Pirate Ship come with door-to-door tracking

Whether you're shipping domestically or internationally, every UPS label you purchase on Pirate Ship comes with free door-to-door tracking!
