A Smarter Way to Ship to the USA

Selling to America from around the world is tougher than ever. With soaring and ever-changing tariffs, customs issues, and unreliable shipping, profits are taking a hit and customers are losing trust. But smart sellers are already adapting by using UK Postbox to route goods through the UK on keeping their US business alive and thriving. No matter what volume you work at, you’ll be surprised at how UK Postbox are already prepared to help.
Why Selling Direct is No Longer Sustainable
US Import Tariffs are Killing Margins
We’ve all heard about the ‘Trump Tariffs’ and know that they’re making shipping directly to the US more expensive than ever. Sellers are left with two options: hike prices or sacrifice profits.
Delays at Customs Damage Reputation
Parcels incoming to the states from countries like China face more checks and longer hold times, which leads to delays arriving with customers. Retailers and dropshippers are facing bad reviews, refund requests and lost customers.
Sellers Leaving the US Market
More and more sellers are leaving the US market, purely because their shipping set up can’t compete. With logistics to avoid tariffs now the make-or-break factor in US sales, getting set up with UK Postbox quickly and easily now will allow you to buck the trend.
