A growing set of free, instant tools for parcels and shipping — detect a carrier from a tracking number, validate formats, estimate transit times and plan holiday shipping deadlines.
Shipping a parcel involves more unknowns than it should — which carrier issued a tracking number, what a package will actually cost once dimensional weight kicks in, how long it will take to cross a border, and what duties might land on it. These free tools answer each of those questions on their own, with no account, no sign-up and no paywall.
Every tool runs instantly in your browser and is built for the same people Parceler serves: online shoppers checking on an order, small businesses pricing a shipment before they buy the label, and anyone who would rather get a straight answer than dig through a carrier's help center. Pick a tool below to get started, or pair them with real-time carrier tracking for the full picture.
Paste any tracking number to detect the likely shipping carrier and validate its format — length, prefix, and check digit — for UPS, FedEx, USPS, DHL, Royal Mail, China Post and more.
Estimate typical delivery times between any two countries or postcodes by shipping speed — based on real geographic distance, not a static table.
Enter length, width, height and actual weight to get the billable (dimensional) weight by carrier — UPS, FedEx, USPS, DHL — in both imperial and metric.
Convert any amount between major currencies using live European Central Bank reference rates. Useful for cross-border shipping quotes and reconciliations.
Estimate the import duty, VAT or GST, and total landed cost of an international order by destination country and product category — so there are no surprise customs charges at delivery.
Search the harmonized tariff (HS) code for common products — apparel, electronics, footwear, food and more. The 6-digit codes are valid worldwide and let you estimate import duty accurately.
Get a quick shipping-cost estimate between any two countries based on parcel weight, distance and service level — economy, standard or express — to budget a shipment before you buy a label.
Find the billable weight FedEx, UPS, DHL and India Post will charge, flag Additional Handling and Large Package surcharges before they hit your invoice, and get the exact box size that bills on actual weight instead of dimensional weight.
Compare the cost of shipping a multi-item order in one big box versus splitting it into two right-sized boxes — using live carrier rates — so you stop overpaying on dimensional weight and oversize surcharges.
Cross-reference live carrier rates and transit times with shipping carbon emissions to rank the smartest way to ship a parcel — balancing cost, speed and CO₂ — with adjustable priorities.
