Introducing First-Class Package Service

Today the Federal Register published our final rule, introducing a new competitive product called First-Class™ Package Service, which replaces and removes First-Class Mail^® commercial base and commercial plus parcels from the market-dominant product offering.

First-Class Mail retail single-piece parcels remain a market-dominant product offering.

The complete final rule Federal Register can be found on the Federal Register website at http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2011-08-18/pdf/2011-21028.pdf and will be available Monday on the Postal Explorer^® website at pe.usps.com.
