USPS Partnered Service Pricing

USPS Partnered service pricing effective Jan 26, 2020

For B2C packages, US Postal service is an ideal choice for package home delivery. You can choose to work with USPS directly or partnered services companies like DHL, or FedEx who acts as USPS parcel expeditor. These parcel expeditors handle pick up, sorting, transportation, and induction to the USPS hub. USPS handles the “Last mile” delivery, usually to a residence.

Postal service is ideal for small packages weighing under 15 pounds. Each package is trackable and could take anywhere between 2 to 6 Business days to deliver the shipment. The chart below shows the cost of shipping via USPS/parcel expeditor based on zone-based pricing effective January 26, 2020
