USPS Mails 141 Million Holiday Guides

Starting this Monday, the United States Postal Service began delivering its Shipping & Mailing Holiday Guide to 141 million addresses nationally, representing every household in the country.

“The Postal Service believes in the power of the mail,” said U.S. Postal Service vice president and consumer advocate Francia Smith in a statement, “and we know that customers want more choice and convenience to manage their busy lives.

The five-by-seven-inch booklet provides details on Priority Mail, Express Mail, Global Priority Mail, Global Express Mail and Global Express Guaranteed Service. It includes the last mailing dates for items to arrive before December 25. Mailings for Hanukkah, which begins December 9 this year, should be scheduled using similar lead times.

The guide also plugs the Click-N-Ship online service, as well as the NetPost CardStore, which allows customers to design personalized greeting cards online.
