Best shipping from China for small packages

[BaziKe]

Starting my first dropshipping store and looking at suppliers from China. There are so many shipping options, kinda confused. Which carriers actually work well for small items. Don't want customers waiting months or losing packages. What do you guys use.

For small packages and starting out, economy lines are the way to keep costs down while testing products. Some are definitely more reliable than others though. There's a pretty detailed guide that explains one of the popular options yanwen shipping and how it compares to others, you can read it here https://easync.io/articles/yanwen-shipping-a-complete-guide/ . It breaks down tracking quirks and average delivery times which helps set customer expectations. Just remember economy means slower, so factor that into your store policies.

Always check the estimated delivery times for your specific country before picking a carrier. It varies a lot by destination and sometimes a slightly more expensive option ends up being cheaper because customers don't open disputes.
