Anyone know the cheapest way to send a 4Kg parcel to the USA?

If you use Parcelforce Worldwide it will cost:

- about £40 for a 28-day service (goes by boat)

- about £50 for a five-day service

- about £60 for a three-day service with signature on delivery.

That is probably about the best you'll get. 4kg is very heavy in postage terms so you pay the price. Exact cost depends on dimensions of the packaged item.

A racing pigeon can carry as much as 100g. they are able to cover distinctly long distances, and you do not specify something approximately velocity! because of the fact the parcel can't be sub-divided, that could desire to intend using 40 racing pigeons. there's a might desire to construct in redundancy, for on the shrink, if one pigeon died then the burden may well be too plenty for the rest. consequently i might recommend using a minimum of 50 pigeons, knowledgeable to fly the place you opt for the parcel to circulate, arranged in a chain of unfastened harnesses, and (of course) released concurrently!

Failing what the first chap said, Surface Mail is the cheapest, which means it goes by boat train and lorry rather than by airmail. there is a web site of the post office where you can check prices.

find someone who is flying there, they take it as luggage and post once there.

throw it
