Can you send calendars media mail

Yes, you can send calendars via Media Mail, which is a cost-effective and efficient way to ship printed materials, including calendars, within the United States.

Here are some guidelines to keep in mind:

  1. Eligibility: Media Mail is only available for shipping printed materials, such as books, magazines, and calendars, that are not eligible for First-Class Mail or Priority Mail.
  2. Weight and size limits: Media Mail has specific weight and size limits. For calendars, the maximum weight is 70 pounds, and the maximum size is 108 inches in length and girth combined.
  3. Mailing requirements: You'll need to follow standard mailing requirements, such as affixing the correct postage, using a valid return address, and ensuring the package is properly sealed and packaged.
  4. Postage rates: Media Mail rates are generally lower than other mail classes, but they can vary depending on the weight and size of your package. You can check the current Media Mail rates on the USPS website.
  5. Delivery time: Media Mail is a slower service, with delivery times ranging from 2-8 business days, depending on the distance between the sender and recipient.

To send a calendar via Media Mail, you'll need to:

  1. Prepare your calendar for shipping by folding or rolling it to fit within the size and weight limits.
  2. Calculate the correct postage using the USPS website or a postage calculator.
  3. Affix the postage to the package and ensure it's properly sealed and packaged.
  4. Fill out a USPS Form 3800 (Media Mail Label) and attach it to the package.
  5. Take the package to 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. However, it's a cost-effective way to send calendars and other printed materials within the United States.
