How much does it cost to send a letter/postcard/package?

Asked 6 months ago
The cost of sending a letter, postcard, or package through the postal service depends on various factors such as the weight, size, and destination. For domestic mail, the price typically starts at $0.55 for a standard letter or postcard. However, rates may vary for larger or heavier items. International mail prices differ based on the country of destination and the item's specifications. International postage for letters or postcards often starts at $1.20 but can be higher for larger packages. It's important to check the Post Office website or consult with a postal representative for accurate and up-to-date pricing information. Remember to consider additional services like tracking or insurance, which may incur extra charges.
