Citizenshipper is a peer-to-peer site that aims to streamline the shipping process. When you need to send a package or letter, shipping costs can add up quickly. Citizenshipper connects people who need to ship something with drivers who are heading towards that same destination. Rather than paying hefty shipping costs, individuals negotiate shipping costs on a case-by-case basis.
Whether you need to deliver a letter overnight or a refrigerator within a month, Citizenshipper sends you an e-mail when a shipper becomes available. The Citizenshipper website services are free, and there's a two-way feedback system so that both shippers and senders can read up on each other. Payment can be arranged via PayPal, post-dated check or cash.
