On FedEx's first day of operation, they delivered 186 packages. Today, FedEx delivers millions daily. Founded in 1971 in Little Rock, Arkansas, by Frederick W. Smith, FedEx revolutionized logistics with its overnight shipping model. By 1983, FedEx hit $1 billion in revenue without mergers or acquisitions. The acquisition of Flying Tiger Line in 1988 made FedEx the largest cargo airline. Officially rebranded in 1994, FedEx now operates 696 aircraft, employs over 550,000 people, and delivers 16 million packages daily across 220 countries.

FedEx calculates costs based on actual weight or dimensional weight (package density). Heavier and bulkier boxes incur higher fees, making efficient packing essential.
The farther your box travels, the higher the cost. Local deliveries are more affordable than international or cross-country shipments.
Expedited services like overnight or two-day shipping are costlier than standard ground shipping. Choose your speed based on your timeline and budget.
Add-ons such as insurance, signature confirmation, or residential delivery may increase your total shipping cost.
FedEx provides an online shipping calculator that considers weight, dimensions, delivery speed, and destination. Enter these details for a quick estimate.
Measure and weigh your box accurately. Include all packaging to avoid discrepancies in cost estimation.
Dimensional weight charges apply to bulky but lightweight items. FedEx calculates this using a standard formula (Length × Width × Height ÷ 139).
Include potential additional fees like fuel surcharges, residential delivery charges, or pickup fees for an accurate total cost.
Use durable but lightweight packing materials. Remove unnecessary items to reduce weight and dimensions.
Select slower shipping speeds, like FedEx Ground or International Economy, for significant savings.
Combine multiple items into one shipment to lower overall costs. Ensure the total weight stays within the carrier’s limit to avoid extra fees.
Booking in advance can help you lock in lower rates, especially during peak travel seasons.
Look for special FedEx offers, such as discounts for students, businesses, or frequent shippers.
Overestimating or underestimating your box’s size and weight can lead to unexpected fees. Always use precise measurements.
Forgetting to insure valuable items can cost you more in the long run if they’re lost or damaged during transit.
Bulky or overloaded boxes increase both weight and dimensional charges. Pack efficiently to avoid excessive fees.
Rushing to ship can force you into higher-priced expedited services. Plan your shipment ahead of time.
Be aware of additional costs like residential delivery fees, fuel surcharges, and Saturday pickup charges to avoid surprises.
