UPS Ground Saver has changed quite a bit since it was known as SurePost.

Rates have increased, included declared value coverage dropped to $20, package requirements have been updated, and a new $5 Non-Compliant Label Fee is now in effect.

Our latest blog breaks down the major changes from 2025–2026 and what they mean for ecommerce merchants.

The biggest takeaway? An economy service is not automatically the lowest-cost option for every package. Comparing current rates and requirements for each shipment matters.

The same shipping decisions should not have to be made over and over again.

That can include everything from tags and insurance to ship-from locations, package settings, shipping services, order holds, notes and more.

Set the rule once. Let ShipBae handle the repeat.

What return address should you use on your shipping labels? 📦

It may not be as straightforward as it sounds. Your business address, ship-from address, pickup address, and return address can all serve different purposes.

You may be able to use a USPS PO Box, Street Addressing, a commercial or virtual mailbox, a warehouse, or another business location. The important part is making sure the address works with your carriers and can reliably receive returned packages.

Our latest guide breaks down the options, how they differ, and what to check before choosing one.

Shipping adjustments can be confusing, especially when they appear after a label has already been purchased.

Our latest blog explains what shipping assessments are, why carriers issue them, and how merchants can dispute charges that may be incorrect.

ShipBae helps merchants review assessment details, compare original shipment information against carrier-assessed data, and submit disputes with more visibility.

Automation Rules can automatically help with:

✅ Setting shipping services
✅ Selecting the cheapest service
✅ Applying presets
✅ Adding insurance
✅ Adding tags or order notes
✅ Holding orders
✅ Assigning warehouses

It’s built to help teams save time, reduce repetitive work, and avoid manual shipping errors.

USPS is making shipping mistakes a lot more expensive.

Starting July 12, 2026, merchants could see new USPS fees tied to HAZMAT shipments, missing package dimensions, lightweight Ground Advantage shipments, and bulky packages affected by DIM weight.

The big one? A new $50 HAZMAT noncompliance assessment charge.

That means if you ship products with batteries, aerosols, fragrances, cosmetics, liquids, or other regulated materials, now is the time to make sure your shipments are declared, labeled, and packaged correctly.

We broke down what’s changing, who may be impacted, and what to review before the new rules kick in.

Shipping with USPS? Don’t let habit pick your service for you.

Priority Mail, Media Mail, and Flat Rate can all be the right choice — but only for the right package.

📦 Media Mail can save a lot on eligible books and media.
📬 Flat Rate can be great for dense items going far.
⚡ Priority Mail can make sense when speed and tracking matter.

But the cheapest option depends on the actual shipment: weight, size, destination, delivery expectations, and rate changes.

We broke down the tradeoffs in our latest blog:

Everyone wants the “cheapest” shipping option…

Until the package shows up 4 days late 😅

The reality in 2026:
Shipping isn’t one-size-fits-all anymore.

The best carrier depends on:
📦 Weight
📍 Distance
🏠 Residential vs commercial
⚡ Delivery speed
💰 Replacement risk

Sometimes USPS wins.
Sometimes UPS.
Sometimes FedEx.

The smartest ecommerce brands aren’t loyal to one carrier.
They’re flexible.

That’s where ShipBae comes in 🚀

Compare rates across carriers, automate smarter shipping decisions, and stop overpaying on shipments that don’t need premium service.

Because “lowest label price” and “lowest total cost” are not always the same thing.
