Considering the wide variety of mail couriers available in the world, it’s smart to have a mean of comparing shipping costs from one place to another. ShipGooder is a simple application that lets you enter in a zip or postal code for a shipping origin and arrival (U.S. and Canada only) and a weight that in turn provides you with a table that details costs by carrier and by shipping option (same day, next day, two day, three day, and ground). ShipGooder can compare prices from FedEx, UPS, DHL and the U.S. Postal Service. You can also make changes to the zip and/or postal codes and watch the chart update itself in real time, and view the shipping route on a map. If you want to save your query, you can do so by downloading it in spreadsheet form, or alternately you can print the table of results.

In their own words
“ShipGooder provides an easy, fast rate engine to get the best shipping rates by comparing local, regional and national courier companies. Since all couriers aren’t competitive in all locations, ShipGooder offers a way to check and compare the best rates. ShipGooder provides instant price comparisons and delivery options from a range of couriers. It’s that simple”
Why it might be a killer
ShipGooder is easy to use and even easier to modify, if you need to update the cities you can see the results change in real-time in accordance with your specifications. You can view the table by courier view or price view, and saving your results is a breeze with the spreadsheet download option.
Some questions
Since ShipGooder is used in Canada as well, why doesn’t the site cater to the metric system in regards to parcel weight? It would also be easier if ShipGooder let you enter in the names of cities directly, instead of forwarding you to an outside site in order to look up the zip or postal code.
