Delivery Confirmation

Delivery Confirmation is a service offered by the United States Postal Ser-

vice® that allows you to verify the date and time of delivery of your mail or,

if the delivery was unsuccessful, the date and time of the delivery attempt.

The service is currently available for Priority Mail and Package Services,

which includes Parcel Select, Parcel Post, Bound Printed Matter, Special

Standard Mail and Library Mail.
You may combine Delivery Confirmation with other services such as COD,

insured mail, registered mail, parcel airlift (PAL) or special handling.
There is no charge for Delivery Confirmation when you ship by Priority Mail

and provide an electronic file to the Postal Service. There is a per piece

charge when you ship Package Services using the electronic option. To get

the latest fees, go to

www.usps.com

and search for "Delivery Confirmation".

Differential Weighing

The weighing mode that allows you to put all of the mail on the scale, then

remove each piece one at time. As you remove each piece, the system cal-

culates the weight and prints postage (either on envelopes or tapes). This

saves time by eliminating the need to place each piece individually on the

scale.
