Express Mail Flat Rate Box debuts:
“The introduction of the Express Mail Flat Rate Box leverages the success of our Priority Mail Flat Rate advertising campaign and further positions the Postal Service as the best value in the shipping business,” said Paul Vogel, president and chief marketing/sales officer. The new box will be available for customers who need overnight service for items larger than what can be placed in an Express Mail Flat Rate Envelope.
OUR COMMENTS:
1. Jackson Pack N Ship is a postage re-seller which charges slightly more than prices available directly from the USPS post office. Our customers love our convenient retail counter and super great parking.
2. Your best value is most important to us. Although the flat rate boxes are attractive, they may not be the best value for your shipping project. Often times we have saved our customers real money by looking at ALL shipping options for the weight, size and destination of the package. Now that an Express Mail Flat Rate box is available, it certainly may work well for you but please let us shop for you in a single stop. Fed Ex and UPS have guarantees that the postal service does not and many times at better prices but they can not ship to a PO Box.
3. Is all this too confusing? JPNS customers never worry about these details, rules and regulations. We are the experts and all you have to do is tell us about your shipping project and we help you select the correct service for the money.
