These adjustments are meant to help cover extra handling costs and ensure a successful season during one of the busiest times of the year for e-commerce merchants and shipping carriers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below is a full breakdown of the changes you can expect to services like Priority Mail and Priority Mail Express, First-Class Package Service (FCPS), Parcel Select Ground, and USPS Retail Ground rates. Pending favorable review by the Postal Regulatory Committee, the USPS Peak Season Temporary Rates would go into effect at 12 a.m. Central on Oct. 2 and remain in place until 12 a.m. Central on Jan. 22, 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note: there are no planned rate adjustments on international services, parcel return rates, or Parcel Select Lightweight rates. <\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"usps-peak-season-temporary-rate-adjustments-breakdown\">USPS Peak Season Temporary Rate Adjustments Breakdown<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;ve laid out both Commercial Rates and Retail Rates below. As a reminder, when you use ShippingEasy, we get you access to Commercial Rates normally only reserved for the largest merchants, regardless of your shipping volume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Priority Mail and Priority Mail Express<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Commercial:\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>$0.75 increase for PM and PME Flat Rate Boxes and Envelopes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>$0.25 increase for Zones 1-4, 0-10 lbs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>$0.80 increase for Zones 5-9, 0-10 lbs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>$0.75 increase for Zones 1-4, 11-25 lbs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>$2.80 increase for Zones 5-9, 11-25 lbs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>$3.00 increase for Zones 1-4, 26-70 lbs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>$6.50 increase for Zones 5-9, 26-70 lbs<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Retail:\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>$0.95 increase for PM and PME Flat Rate Boxes and Envelopes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>$0.30 increase for Zones 1-4, 0-10 lbs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>$1.00 increase for Zones 5-9, 0-10 lbs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>$0.95 increase for Zones 1-4, 11-25 lbs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>$3.20 increase for Zones 5-9, 11-25 lbs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>$3.25 increase for Zones 1-4, 26-70 lbs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>$6.45 increase for Zones 5-9, 26-70 lbs<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>First-Class Package Service, Parcel Select Ground, and USPS Retail Ground<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Commercial:\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>$0.25 increase for Zones 1-4, 0-10 lbs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>$0.40 increase for Zones 5-9, 0-10 lbs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>$0.75 increase for Zones 1-4, 11-25 lbs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>$1.60 increase for Zones 5-9, 11-25 lbs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>$3.00 increase for Zones 1-4, 26-70 lbs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>$5.50 increase for Zones 5-9, 26-70 lbs<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Retail:\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>$0.30 increase for Zones 1-4, 0-10 lbs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>$0.60 increase for Zones 5-9, 0-10 lbs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>$0.95 increase for Zones 1-4, 11-25 lbs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>$2.70 increase for Zones 5-9, 11-25 lbs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>$3.25 increase for Zones 1-4, 26-70 lbs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>$5.85 increase for Zones 5-9, 26-70 lbs<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>As a reminder, First-Class Package Service can be used for packages up to 15.999 oz, whereas Retail can only be used for packages up to 13 oz. Thus the increases applying to that would be the 0-10 lbs increases.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"examples-of-the-rate-adjustments-effects\">Examples of the Rate Adjustments&#8217; Effects<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>To help illustrate what the USPS Peak Season Rate Adjustments look like, we&#8217;ve put together some more specific examples for you.
