What is the maximum weight limit for domestic shipments?

Asked a year ago
The maximum weight limit for domestic shipments with the US Postal Service varies depending on the specific service used. For Priority Mail and USPS Retail Ground, the maximum weight is 70 pounds. First-Class Package Service has a maximum weight limit of 15.999 ounces for commercial pricing and 13 ounces for retail pricing. However, there are additional limitations for certain destinations and services. For example, some international destinations may have lower weight limits or restrictions, and certain hazardous materials may have more specific weight restrictions. It is always recommended to check with the USPS website or consult with a postal representative for exact details on weight limits for specific services and destinations.
