While shippers transporting only products recognized by the Postal Service as perishables (DMM 601.9.0) are not required to have an appointment, the shippers must notify the destination facility at least 1 business day in advance of deposit to facilitate timely receipt, unloading, and processing of their freight. These shippers may use FAST to fulfill the 1-business-day-notification requirement. If shippers of perishables transport other mailings in the same trailer, the shippers are required to meet appointment standards for those other mailings.
