Can music cds be shippes media mail

According to the United States Postal Service (USPS), music CDs can be shipped via Media Mail, which is a cost-effective and efficient way to send CDs. Here are the guidelines:

  1. Eligibility: Media Mail is a service that allows you to send books, CDs, DVDs, and other eligible media items at a lower rate than First-Class Mail.
  2. Weight and size limits: There are no weight limits for Media Mail, but there are size limits. The maximum size for a Media Mail package is 13 inches long, 17 inches wide, and 3 inches thick.
  3. Content requirements: To qualify for Media Mail, the contents of the package must be primarily composed of eligible media items, such as music CDs, DVDs, books, and other printed materials.
  4. Labeling requirements: You must affix the correct postage and label the package with "Media Mail" and the correct postage.
  5. Delivery time: Media Mail is a slower service than First-Class Mail, with delivery times ranging from 2-8 business days, depending on the distance.

To ship music CDs via Media Mail, you'll need to:

  1. Calculate the correct postage using the USPS Media Mail rate calculator.
  2. Prepare your package by placing the CDs in a sturdy, protective container (e.g., a CD jewel case or a bubble mailer).
  3. Affix the correct postage and label the package with "Media Mail" and the correct postage.
  4. Drop off the package at a USPS location or schedule a pickup.

Keep in mind that Media Mail is a non-trackable service, so you won't be able to track the package's progress. If you need to track your package, you may want to consider using First-Class Mail or another trackable service.
