Are jigsaw puzzles media mail

Jigsaw puzzles are typically considered a "book" or "periodical" for the purpose of calculating shipping costs, and as such, they are usually eligible for Media Mail shipping rates in the United States.

Media Mail is a cost-saving shipping option offered by the United States Postal Service (USPS) for shipping books, periodicals, and other media items. To qualify for Media Mail rates, an item must meet certain criteria, including:

  1. The item must be a book, periodical, or other media item (such as a CD, DVD, or video game).
  2. The item must be sent to a domestic address (i.e., within the United States).
  3. The item must weigh less than 70 pounds.

Jigsaw puzzles typically meet these criteria, as they are considered a type of book or periodical. However, it's always a good idea to check with the USPS or your local post office to confirm that your specific jigsaw puzzle is eligible for Media Mail rates.

Keep in mind that Media Mail rates are generally slower than other shipping options, such as Priority Mail or First Class Package Service. Media Mail packages typically take 2-8 business days to arrive, depending on the distance and efficiency of the postal service.
