What is the absolute fastest way to ship across the U.S.?

For lanes within about 600 miles, Kaebox Same‑Day with Kaebox drivers is typically fastest. For longer distances, overnight air (UPS or FedEx) booked through Kaebox is the next best option.

Do I need separate accounts with UPS, USPS, FedEx, or DHL?

No. Kaebox sells official carrier labels directly in the app. Labels are valid at carrier counters and drop‑offs.

Can someone pick up from my door today?

Yes. Kaebox can dispatch its own driver network for same‑day pickup and delivery in covered metros, or request a carrier pickup after you purchase a label.

What if I don’t have a printer?

Use a Kaebox kiosk to print by scanning a QR code. Kiosks are available in many residential buildings, airports, colleges, and hospitals, with on‑the‑spot packaging supplies.

Are the label discounts real?

Discounts vary by service and route, but Kaebox applies contracted and commercial pricing—often up to 88% off typical retail counter rates.

How to move fast (and avoid delays)

Check cutoff times early. Airports and carrier counters have hard deadlines. Kaebox shows nearby drop‑offs and their cutoffs right in the map.
Use instant label printing. No printer? Create the shipment in Kaebox, then scan a QR at a Kaebox kiosk (in many apartments, airports, colleges, hospitals) to print labels and grab packaging on the spot.
Measure and weigh accurately. Rounding up slightly prevents re‑weigh fees and holds.
Choose Saturday delivery if needed. Some overnight services require this add‑on for weekend arrival.
Add insurance/signature when it matters. Kaebox lets you toggle coverage up to $10k and require signatures for high‑value items.
