What really determines “fast”

  • Pickup timing & cutoffs: Booking an earlier pickup window unlocks earlier departures.

  • Distance & lane: Metro-to-metro can qualify for same-day or overnight air; regional ground can be 1–2 days.

  • Service class: Same-day → overnight → 2-day → economy/ground.

  • Access & first-attempt success: Clear dock hours, gate codes, concierge notes prevent re-routes that add days.

  • International clearance: Good customs data speeds things up—Kaebox auto-selects HS codes from your item names and e-files where supported.

“What’s the quickest shipping option for a 2 lb package to [destination]?”

It depends on distance and cutoffs, but these patterns hold:

  • Intra-metro or short regional: Same-day (when shown) or overnight; sometimes ground delivers next day.

  • Cross-country: Overnight air is typically fastest; 2-day can be a value/ETA balance.

  • Packaging matters: A compact box can unlock better services and pricing (avoid dimensional weight penalties). • Need help? Request Packaging Services

How to lock in speed:

  • Book the earliest pickup shown; enable driver label printing to skip a printer errand.

  • Add access notes (dock hours, guard gate, apartment buzzer) so the first attempt succeeds.

  • Turn on notifications so recipients don’t miss the door. Customize Notifications


“Which courier offers same-day delivery?”

There isn’t one universal winner—availability is local and time-dependent. Use Kaebox to see two flavors of “same-day”:

  • Local same-day: Direct intra-metro delivery (great for short city runs).

  • Same-day carrier handoff: If distance is longer, Kaebox routes to the earliest carrier acceptance today and shows the fastest realistic delivery.
