More tips for a successful holiday mailing and shipping season:
Use free Priority Mail Flat Rate boxes. They are available at Post Office locations or online at usps.com/freeboxes.
Schedule a free Package Pickup when the carrier delivers your mail. It’s free regardless of the number of packages. Pickups can be scheduled at usps.com/pickup.
Mail and packages that weigh more than 10 ounces or are more than a half-inch thick and using stamps as postage cannot be dropped into a collection box or left for a carrier to pick up. Instead, take them to a local Post Office.
