tedbundty Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 I need to send a 2oz, 6x9 envelope. According to USPS (http://www.usps.com/prices/first-class-mail-prices.htm) this qualifies as a "Large Envelope" and should cost $1.05 to ship via First Class Mail. So can I just put on stamps adding up to $1.05, put the flag up and count on it being gone tomorrow? If I use Paypal Labels it's about $1.50. Do I have to bring it to a USPS drop off, though, or will they pick it up from my house/mail box? ................................[Currently Have - 1300M].........................................................My Beginner's Merchanting Guide - My Youtube Channel - My Twitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tedbundty Posted February 6, 2011 Author Share Posted February 6, 2011 You gotta buy a specialty stamp from the post office. Other than that, it should work... How about if I use Paypal Labels and what if the package is bigger - like 13x15? I found this part on the USPS site, should I fill this out only for packages I can't fit in the mailbox? https://carrierpickup.usps.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/CarrierPickup.woa ................................[Currently Have - 1300M].........................................................My Beginner's Merchanting Guide - My Youtube Channel - My Twitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RpgGamer Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 go to the post-office and ask, you'll likely need to go there for stamps anyway Quote Quote Anyone who likes tacos is incapable of logic.

Kimberly Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 go to the post-office and ask, you'll likely need to go there for stamps anyway This, you don't even need to go there while they're open. They have kiosks that will weigh your envelopes and print out the appropriate labelling/postage dependent upon its weight at no extra cost. I don't know what the rules are for pickup because I think it might vary from area to area. But you definitely don't want to leave something too big to fit in your mailbox on the outside of it for pickup. Dropping it off in a mailbox or the drop off at your local post office is probably the way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally speaking, if you have the postage on hand, you can affix it and place it in your mailbox for pickup. There is no "special stamp" for first-class service. Small-town post offices generally do not have self-service kiosks. Mine doesn’t.
