You have to ship a LOT in order for them to give significant discounts. We have an account with FedEx but it's only 10% off the price regular people pay. I know some large companies get extremely discounted rates with high volume. For example if I ship a bike within the state it costs be about $25. One of my vendors ships bikes, it costs them $5 a bike.
