There's an interesting loophole. You can ship anything anywhere as long as you're shipping it to yourself. You can ship it in care of someone else, but you are the only one allowed to open the package. ...at least that's what the law says...

UPS, FedEx, and US Postal Service all have different rules. FedEx has the most relaxed rules. ...and of course, each state has their own set of do's and don't's.
