USPS Rate Increase 11/18

[val2525]

USPS is increasing some rates on November 18th

While the Postal Service is not adding any Holiday Surcharges this year, they are increasing Priority Mail rates everywhere you can buy postage online 😢

Priority Mail Flat Rate is increasing up to 6%, because USPS is removing this service from the Connect eCommerce program that provided deeper discounts, so the rates are returning to the Commercial Pricing levels.

Weight-Based Priority Mail is increasing up to 10% in zones 1-4, but it'll still have discounts that are cheaper than Commercial Pricing 😃

Dimension-Based Priority Mail Cubic is increasing up to 23% in zones 1-4 for tiers 0.40 and 0.50—so the largest package sizes for this service are getting more expensive in the lowest zones. But the rates are still cheaper than Commercial Pricing 🎉

Ground Advantage is decreasing up to 16% in zones 1-5, depending on the size and weight of your package.

Rest assured Pirate Ship will continue passing through the cheapest shipping rates available for USPS with no hidden costs or monthly fees

Thanks for the info, I didn't know a thing about this! Does that mean for example Padded flat rate will be $10.40 as opposed to $8.30?

I have no idea. You might try googling it and see if there is a table somewhere with the prices.
