Each piece of "Package Service Mail" must not exceed 70 pounds in weight and a maximum combined size of 130" in length and girth . All over sized pieces, regardless of actual weight, will be charged at an "over sized" rate based on zone or entry, which is a higher rate than the 70-pound rate. A number of quantity discounts are available for bulk mailings. Call Mail Services for information.

There are four sub-categories of Package Service Mail that might save postage. They are:

Media Mail (Known as "Book Rate," but this is not just for books)

Library Mail

Bound Printed Matter

Parcel Post
