Can i mail ground packages at usps kiosk

Yes, you can mail ground packages at a USPS self-service kiosk, also known as a USPS Retail Online Post Office (ROLO) kiosk. These kiosks are located in various retail locations, such as grocery stores, pharmacies, and other businesses.

Here are some things to keep in mind when mailing a ground package at a USPS kiosk:

  1. Availability: Not all USPS kiosks offer ground shipping services. Check with the kiosk location or the USPS website to confirm availability.
  2. Package types: You can mail packages weighing up to 70 lbs (31.8 kg) at a USPS kiosk. However, some kiosks may have weight or size limitations, so check the kiosk's capabilities before attempting to mail a package.
  3. Services offered: USPS kiosks typically offer the following ground shipping services:
    • Priority Mail
    • Priority Mail Express
    • Parcel Post
    • First Class Package Service
  4. Payment methods: You can pay for your ground package using cash, credit/debit card, or mobile payment methods like Apple Pay or Google Pay.
  5. Package preparation: Make sure to properly prepare your package by:
    • Using a sturdy box that is the correct size for your item
    • Packing your item securely to prevent damage during transit
    • Applying the correct postage (the kiosk will calculate the postage for you)
    • Filling out the customs form (if applicable)
  6. Kiosk limitations: Some USPS kiosks may not have the ability to print shipping labels or handle fragile or oversized items. If you have a complex or unusual package, you may need to visit a traditional USPS post office or contact USPS customer service for assistance.
