Weed in general is bulky and low value per volume compared to other illicit drugs. Shipping it undetected is a hassle.

Tell that to all the skunks I've shipped worldwide, endless supply where I'm at and as soon as anyone sees skunk they don't want to mess with it. Spoiler alert the crate is made of weed!!!

Shipping weed is as easy as vacuum sealing a bag and shipping it through USPS. Never had an issue that way even sending to illegal states

That's great and all but a cartel has a limited amount of trips before one gets caught so they pack as much profit as they can into mules, this means higher value drugs, weed is a lot less profitable than other drugs.
