- Write the recipient's name on the first line of the address label.
- Write the street address or post office box number on the second line.

- Write "Priority Mail" on the fourth line, followed by the weight-based postage rate (e.g., "Priority Mail $7.50").
- Add any additional services or endorsements, such as "Signature Confirmation" or "Delivery Confirmation".
- End with the return address (your name and address) on the top left corner of the label.
Here's an example of a properly addressed Priority Mail Flat Rate box:

Note:
- Make sure to use the correct postage for the weight of the package. You can use the USPS website or consult with a postal worker to determine the correct postage.
- If you're using a Priority Mail Flat Rate box, you don't need to affix a postage stamp, as the postage is already included in the cost of the box.
- You can also use a Priority Mail Flat Rate envelope or a Priority Mail Regional Rate box, which have different postage rates and requirements.
Remember to always follow the USPS guidelines for addressing mail and to use the correct postage to ensure timely and efficient delivery.
