USPS charges the same, low (55¢) rate to send to these remote locations. FedEx won't tell me the cost without an account, but for UPS a domestic, ground letter (<1 lb) costs between $8.76 and $11.01, or $32+ for Alaska/Hawaii etc. Added to that, "remote areas" have a surcharge which is about $4 in the 48 states, $10 in Hawaii and $32 in Alaska. https://www.ups.com/assets/resources/media/en_US/daily_rates.pdf https://www.ups.com/assets/resources/media/en_US/daily_rates... https://www.ups.com/gb/en/shipping/zones-and-rates/area-surcharge.page https://www.ups.com/gb/en/shipping/zones-and-rates/area-surc...
