    PARCEL POST
    Parcel post is a lower-cost alternative to Priority Mail, at the expense of delivery time. While most Priority Mail should deliver in 3-5 days, Parcel Post can be expected to deliver in 7-10 days, but there is no delivery guarantee.

    Parcel Post is a zoned rate after 1 pound.

    About Zones:  zones are determined by zip code. To determine exactly what zone you're in, go to the Postal Service website, type in the first three digits of your zip code, then look for the listing for our zip code 80540.  Note that some of our customers cover broad service areas, and actually span a couple of zones.  Check not only your own zip code, but look at some of the zip codes for the towns on the outer edges of your signal area.
