USPS Adds Multiple Shipping Contracts
The Postal Service asked the Postal Regulatory Commission to add several negotiated service agreements — including Priority Mail Express, Priority Mail, and USPS Ground Advantage contracts (notably contract 596 and contracts 1288 through 1299) — to the Competitive product list. The Commission accepted the filings on January 13, 2025, and public comments are due January 22, 2025. These filings may lead to new mailing options and possible pricing changes for businesses and customers who use special mailing services.
