The products found in the Shutterfly online store are unable to ship directly to Australia.
This can be at times a frustrating issue. Thankfully, there is an extremely easy and convenient way to solve this problematic issue.
In fact, you can ship any product from Shutterfly directly to Australia at a low, inexpensive rate.
How to Deliver Items from the Shutterfly Online Store to Australia
First off, you’ll need a real U.S. address. There’s no two ways around it.
How are you supposed to get a real U.S. address if you don’t live in the USA? Ask a friend? What if you don’t know anybody in the United States?
Don’t worry, it’s a lot easier than it sounds!
United States companies called “freight forwarders” offer US addresses to foreign customers. The foreign customers then use these addresses for purposes of international shipping.
When you open an account with a freight forwarder, you receive a US-based address. You can then easily order from any US-based company by using your US address.
MyUS is our personal favorite Freight Forwarder.
They combine a reliable and convenient service with a fair price. They do not charge additional taxes or unnecessary fees and have a relatively low rate.
We’ve used them to ship packages abroad for years now.
Hopefully, you can now see how it all works. When ordering from the Shutterfly store, or any other U.S.-only store for that matter, you simply get the packages shipped to the U.S. based address.
Your packages will then be shipped to the address that MyUS supplied you with.

Once MyUS receives your package from Shutterfly, they’ll ship it straight to Australia.
Another great benefit of MyUS is that they’ll actually consolidate multiple packages into one single shipment before sending it to Australia.
By using these Freight Forwarding services, you can order things from the U.S. as if you were a resident!
