Are blank vhs tapes considered usps media mail

According to the United States Postal Service (USPS) guidelines, blank VHS tapes are considered "non-published" or "unpublished" materials, which are eligible for Media Mail shipping.

Here are the specific guidelines from the USPS:

• Media Mail is a cost-effective way to send books, audio recordings, video recordings, and other published materials.
• Non-published materials, such as blank VHS tapes, are also eligible for Media Mail shipping.

However, there are some conditions to keep in mind:

• The blank VHS tapes must be empty and not contain any copyrighted material.
• The tapes must be packaged in a way that prevents them from being damaged during shipping.
• You must affix the correct postage and complete the necessary customs forms (if applicable).

It's worth noting that the USPS has specific requirements for packaging and labeling Media Mail shipments, including the use of a specific form (PS Form 3817) and a clear indication of the contents on the outside of the package.

To ensure compliance with USPS regulations, you may want to consult their website or contact your local post office for more information on shipping blank VHS tapes via Media Mail.
