First things first, USPS is changing it up for the better this year and has announced that 2023 will have NO HOLIDAY SURCHARGES! That means no paying extra to get your packages in on time.
That being said, they did permanently change the pricing of a few things…
USPS is increasing Priority Mail Flat Rate by up to 6% due to its removal from the Connect eCommerce program.
But dont worry, you should still be getting access to the best of the best pricing!
USPS has given us the ship-by dates to ensure your package arrives by the 25th of December. See below to see what dates apply to you and your packages!
