The Postal Service’s revenue from shipping and packages has surged 17 percent during the past 2 years. To capitalize on this growth, we made major changes to our lineup of Priority Mail products and services in 2013.
With Priority Mail, customers receive improved tracking and day-specific delivery, so they’ll know whether to expect delivery in 1, 2 or 3 days. Also, insurance is included at no extra charge for barcoded Priority Mail packages.
To simplify our product offerings, Express Mail was renamed Priority Mail Express™. It remains our fastest domestic product, which offers overnight delivery to most locations and includes up to $100 of insurance coverage.
