September 2024 Rate Case
Effective September 16th, USPS is making changes to shipping rates that will affect some of your Priority Mail® and Ground Advantage™ packages. Depending on where you’re shipping, you may notice slightly higher prices.
The good news? Even with these changes, your rates will continue to be better than what you would pay at the Post Office. Through ShipEngine, you’ll enjoy up to 42% off USPS Priority Mail® and 49% off USPS Ground Advantage™ when shipping to these impacted ZIP Codes.
