On May 14th
the United States Postal Service instituted
another rate increase which made a HUGE impact
to your bottom line. For a company that uses
Media Mail as its primary means of shipping,
that service class 1lb. rate went up 34 % and
nearly 20% for the 2lb rate. A company that
ships out 200 packages per day will spend on
average an additional $24,816 annually.
