New USPS Negotiated Contracts Filed
The U.S. Postal Service asked the Postal Regulatory Commission to add two negotiated contracts — Priority Mail Express, Priority Mail & USPS Ground Advantage Contract 1487 and Contract 1488 — to the Competitive Product List. These filings were accepted on February 3, 2026, and public comments are due February 11, 2026. Businesses that use competitive mail services could see changes to prices or service options if the Commission approves the requests.
Public vs. Sealed Filing Access
The public portions of the Postal Service filings can be accessed on the Commission's website, while any non-public portions are filed under seal and are available only through compliance with 39 CFR 3011.301. If you want to review sealed materials, you must follow the Commission's access rules.
