Using Fed Ex in Costa Rica

MAIN LOCATION – Cariari:
From the Pista that you take from SJ to the Airport – get off at the Real Cariari Mall exit (NOT one of the 2 little ones before & that go into it with NO signs!! I don’t believe there’s a sign there [surprise!!]) – head East/RIGHT if you’re coming from the San Jose direction.

Pass the mall & just after the light that takes you into it, you come to a “Y”/split/fork in the road – veer RIGHT. Go down 800 meters/8 blocks (you’ll be in the “Free Zone”) to Metro Park – turn LEFT into it. At the guard station you’ll give them your drivers license & goforward/straight. Turn LEFT at the first DRIVEWAY (which is AFTER thefirst street). There’s Fed Ex.
HOURS: Mon.-Fri. 8:30am-5pm

SAN JOSE – Downtown
ON Paseo Colon in the War Service Center – 100 meters East from Monument of Leon Cortez (the guy with 2 lions, next door to the Soccer/Futball Federation) – at the beginning/West entrance to Paseo Colon closest to Sabana Park. Go up 1 block & they’re on the corner on the right side – next door to HSBC (formerly Banex). Walter is REALLY helpful & speaks GOOD English!

THEY PICK UP FROM YOU:
PRICE – Start at 18,407 for pickups through much of the Central Valley (call for pricing for other pickup locations) to the U.S. (depends on where it’s going to) for a document that’s under 1 pound (approximately 50 pages). You must call before 11:30am (pick ups are from 10am-5-6-ish).

YOU BRING THE PACKAGE TO THEM:
PRICE – 18,589-c (so it’s MORE EXPENSIVE for you to take it to them than for them to pick it up
