Commercial Residual First-Class Mail Letters

Recently, the Postal Regulatory Commission (PRC) confirmed the 48-cent price for all commercial First-Class Mail^® residual letters – up to 2 ounces – from a presort mailing.  As a result, mailers must continue entering all residual pieces from a presort mailing on line B4 of the postage statement. The PRC’s order confirming the 48-cent price is Order No. 1661, under Docket No. MC2013-30, and can be found at http://www.prc.gov/Docs/86/86505/Order_1661.docx.

Complete information on the reporting and mail makeup of First-Class Mail residual letters can be found on RIBBS under Important Links on the Latest News page.
