| for those who might mail packages Effective Sept 07:
New 13-ounce Mail Rule
A new rule is in effect for all mailpieces that weigh
more than 13 ounces if mailed with ordinary postage
stamps at a location other than a Post Office retail
service counter.
You can use a convenient online postage application
or an APC if you wish to mail items that weigh
more than 13 ounces in Postal Service collection
boxes or Post Office lobby mail slots, or if you wish
to leave the items for pickup by your letter carrier.
Online postage applications include the Postal
Service’s Click-N-Ship service on usps.com and PC
Postage from an authorized USPS vendor.
If you are unable to use one of the above methods
to prepare and affix postage, items weighing more
than 13 ounces must be presented for mailing to an
employee at a Post Office retail service counter. Business
customers who use postage meters may continue
to use meter postage for packages of any weight and
mailing method.
Decals have been placed on USPS collection boxes
to indicate that deposit of stamped mail over 13
ounces is prohibited in collection boxes and any such
mail will be returned to sender. This is part of
ongoing security measures established by the Postal
Service, in cooperation with other government
agencies, to keep the public, customers, employees
and the mail safe.
So I go online and print a stamp but cant use stamps
If I use stamps and drop it off, it gets mailed back to me instead of mailed to the addressee.
DUH DUH DUH
