Still treating non-continental U.S. destinations like Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico as edge cases in your e-commerce shipping strategy? That mindset is costing you.
The most forward-thinking retailers, marketplaces, and 3PLs are already optimizing their e-commerce shipping strategies by treating these regions not as exceptions—but as growth opportunities. The result? Faster, cheaper, more resilient delivery.
Let’s bust a few outdated myths still holding mid-sized shippers back:
❌ “It’s too expensive to ship to Hawaii or Puerto Rico.”
✅ Reality: It’s too expensive not to.
With International Bridge’s Box of Savings, you can tap into affordable shipping rates tailored for long-distance routes. Our optimized network provides the cheapest way to ship to Alaska and other non-continental destinations—with full end-to-end visibility and local expertise.
❌ “Only traditional large shippers can handle long-distance shipping.”
✅ Reality: We’re the UPS alternative and FedEx alternative you didn’t know you needed.
National carriers charge a premium for “remote” deliveries. IB doesn’t see Alaska or Puerto Rico as remote—we see them as our specialty. With over 20 years of experience, we provide small parcel shipping that’s cost-effective, reliable, and designed for modern e-commerce shipping solutions.
❌ “We can’t complicate our tech stack with another carrier.”
✅ Reality: Adding IB is easier than you think.
Retailers, marketplaces, and 3PLs are already printing IB shipping labels directly from their home or warehouse via platforms they already use.
Our dedicated IB team supports every step of the integration, ensuring a smooth and hassle-free process. Whether you’re printing labels from your office or warehouse, our system plugs right into your existing workflow.
Print shipping labels from home, plug into our system, and start saving on every shipment.
Here’s the truth:
📦 Shipping to Hawaii from the mainland doesn’t have to blow up your budget.
📦 Shipping to Puerto Rico can be done without extra headaches or delays.
📦 Shipping to Alaska shouldn’t require guesswork or gamble.
Why it matters now:
Tariffs and surcharges are increasing, especially for long-distance shipments. IB’s Box of Savings helps you sidestep these costs with optimized pricing on every parcel.
- Peak season surcharges are creeping up, impacting shipping budgets across the board.
- Carrier delays are no longer rare—they’re expected.
- Your customers in Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico aren’t “fringe”—they’re loyal, growing, and expecting fast delivery just like everyone else.
If you haven’t reviewed your e-commerce shipping strategy to Puerto Rico, ship to Hawaii, or deliver across non-continental regions, this is your moment. A small shift in your volume can lead to six-figure savings and a more agile network before year-end.
