Can priority mail be marked fragile
Yes, Priority Mail items can be marked as "Fragile" to indicate that they require special handling and care during transit.
Here are the steps to mark a Priority Mail item as "Fragile":
- Use a Fragile sticker: You can purchase Fragile stickers at most post offices or online. These stickers are specifically designed for marking fragile items and are easily visible to postal workers.
- Write "Fragile" on the package: If you don't have a Fragile sticker, you can write "Fragile" in large, bold letters on the package using a permanent marker. Make sure to write it on multiple sides of the package to ensure it's easily visible.
- Use a Fragile tape: You can also use a Fragile tape, which is a special type of tape that is designed to indicate that the package is fragile. This tape is usually red or yellow and has a Fragile symbol on it.
When marking a Priority Mail item as "Fragile", make sure to follow these guidelines:
- Use a clear and legible marker or sticker to indicate that the package is fragile.
- Mark the package on multiple sides to ensure it's easily visible to postal workers.
- Avoid using tape or stickers that may obscure the Fragile marking.
- Make sure the Fragile marking is large enough to be easily seen, especially if the package is large or has a lot of packaging material.
By marking your Priority Mail item as "Fragile", you're helping to ensure that it receives the special care and handling it needs to prevent damage during transit.
