The Postal Service receives no tax dollars for operating expenses and relies on the sale of postage, products and services to fund its operations.When it was introduced in September 2019, the UPS Simple Rate was a flat-rate shipping solution designed to compete with similar postal carriers. The price change tables are also available on the Postal Service’s Postal Explorer website at pe./PriceChange/Index. For the Shipping Services filing, see Docket No. The complete Postal Service price filings with prices for all products can be found on the PRC site under the Daily Listings section at prc.gov/dockets/daily. The PRC will review the prices before they are scheduled to take effect. Unlike some other shippers, the Postal Service does not add surcharges for fuel, residential delivery or regular Saturday delivery. The Postal Service has some of the lowest letter-mail postage rates in the industrialized world and continues to offer a great value in shipping. The proposed domestic Priority Mail Flat Rate Retail price changes are: Regular Flat-Rate Envelopes, Legal Flat-Rate Envelopes, and Padded Flat-Rate Envelopes would increase to $7.95, $8.25, and $8.55 respectively. The Medium Flat-Rate Box would increase to $15.50, the Large Flat-Rate Box would increase to $21.90 and the price of the APO/FPO Large Flat-Rate Box would increase to $20.40. If favorably reviewed by the PRC, the new prices will include an increase in the price of a Small Flat-Rate Box to $8.45. The Governors believe these new rates will keep the Postal Service competitive while providing the agency with needed revenue. Although Mailing Services price increases are based on the consumer price index, Shipping Services prices are primarily adjusted according to market conditions.
Shipping Services price increases vary by product. The proposed prices, approved by the Postal Service Governors, would raise Shipping Services product prices approximately 3.5 percent for Priority Mail service, and 1.2 percent for Priority Mail Express service. WASHINGTON, DC - The United States Postal Service filed notice with the Postal Regulatory Commission (PRC) today of price changes to take effect Jan.
