Usually most post office locations have boxes you can purchase. However, you may have to buy tape there too to seal your box and package. Another option could be to visit another store (Wal-Mart, etc.) and get a box and packing tape there because it might be cheaper that buying it at the post office.

You could try “First Class Mail International” in an envelope. I found this on USPS: . “You can ship items up to 15.994 oz” with First Class Mail International.” If it weighs more than that and is less than 4 lbs (pounds), your next option is “First Class Package International Services.” You could use a padded envelope there or buy one cheaper at Walmart or another office supply store.

I am not 100% sure. It depends on the city you live in and local state laws. I think it is possible to drop off a letter or package, but not sure if you can pay, etc. by yourself.

It all depends on the other country's limitations and restrictions. Usually you cannot ship liquid in glass jars, but I could be mistaken. I found this resource which may be helpful for you: www.easyship.com/blog/usps-shipping-restrictions

What about USPS First Class Mail International? Do you recommend using that for smaller items? I noticed you used priority international. Much cheaper it seems to sent first class intl. Wondering your thoughts?
@ESLWithPurpose
@ESLWithPurpose 4 жыл бұрын
It is cheaper to do First Class Mail International. With priority or flat rate, you get the added benefit of tracking the package though and I think it is covered better.

@ESLWithPurpose 4 жыл бұрын
Good question! According to the USPS site, the “first-class package international service” pricing options appear to be cheaper than the flat rate international pricing. See it here 👉www.usps.com/business/prices.htm and click on International Prices with the drop-down arrow. I hope this helps you! I don’t work for the post office, but answering these questions makes me feel that way. 🤣

That sounds about right for anything over 4 pounds in weight. You could compare pricing with DHL, UPS, and FedEx. They might be about the same or more expensive though.

I’m not sure. That is usually declared for the estimated cost of goods or items in the box. Either way, it is the weight, dimensions, and policies of the international country’s destination that will determine the cost of how much to ship your package. I’m not sure if this helps, but those are my 2 cents anyway. 🙂
