USPS NEW IMPROVED SERVICES

USPS DID NOT increase postal rates on July 28, 2013. The changes are solely operational only.

There are three (3) major improvements that make Priority Mail even easier to ship.

1. Express Mail is being renamed Priority Mail Express and Express Mail International is being
    renamed Priority Mail Express International. There used to have two shipping product names
    which research shows that it is confusing to customers. Thus, USPS just simplify everything
    under the Priority Mail brand name. Delivery service for Priority Mail Express will remain
    the same (overnight for domestic and 3-5 days for international).

2. The estimated delivery date on all Priority Mail shipping labels will be displayed at the top
     of the shipping label in bold text and will contain either "Priority Mail 1-day, Priority Mail 2-day
     or Priority 3-day."

3. Priority Mail will now include $50 of insurance for FREE if you print postage online (Commercial
    Base Pricing). If you are approved for Commercial Plus Pricing, you will receive $100 of
insurance coverage against loss, damage or missing contents.
