Automated Package Verification

Save Time by Doing It Right

继续提供经济实惠和高效的航运十大网堵平台, 美国邮政自动验证了点击- n - ship的邮资® and PC Postage® package labels. Below, 我们详细介绍了我们的自动包裹验证(APV)过程,并提供了一些提示,以帮助您改善您的运输过程和正确计算邮资,以确保您不会多付或少付.

How to Calculate Postage Correctly

Weigh Your Item and Round Up

When calculating the postage price for your package, USPS将重量四舍五入(对于大多数较重的包裹,按下一磅计算,对于一些轻量级的包裹,按下一盎司计算). 这适用于所有邮件类别——国内邮件和国际邮件. 例如,如果你的包裹重3磅4盎司,它将按4磅率收费. 然而,如果你有一个轻量级的USPS地面优势® package that weighs 5 oz, 你将支付8盎司的价格(基于可用的价格增量:4盎司), 8 oz, 12 oz, and 15.999 oz).

 

Measure Your Package

Measure the length, width, and height of the package. Dimensional (DIM) weight1 rates apply to domestic Priority Mail®, Priority Mail Express®, USPS Ground Advantage, and Parcel Select® 大于1立方英尺(1728立方英寸)的包裹. 如果DIM的重量(长×宽×高÷ 166)大于实际包装重量, you’ll need to pay the DIM weight price.

如果您使用的是Click-N-Ship或PC邮资平台,并且您遗漏或提供不准确的尺寸和/或未支付DIM重量率(当适用时), you’ll pay a dimension-noncompliance fee of $1.50.

发送非标准尺寸需要支付额外费用:

  • 通过包裹选择目的地单元(DDU)或目的地中心(DHUB)进行地面运输, you'll pay more if your package measures:
    • Between 22 and 30 inches long: add $2.00
    • More than 30 inches long: add $6.00
    • More than 2 cubic feet (3,456 cubic inches): add $18.00
  • 通过包裹选择递送网络配送中心(DNDC)或递送部分中心设施(DSCF)进行地面运输, you'll pay more if your package measures:
    • Between 22 and 30 inches long: add $3.00
    • More than 30 inches long: add $7.20
    • More than 2 cubic feet (3,456 cubic inches): add $18.00
  • 通过USPS地面优势进行地面运输,如果您的包裹尺寸:
    • Between 22 and 30 inches long: add $4.00
    • More than 30 inches long: add $8.40
    • More than 2 cubic feet (3,456 cubic inches): add $18.00
  • 特快专递(特快专递或特快专递), you’ll pay more if your package measures:
    • Between 22 and 30 inches long: add $4.00
    • More than 30 inches long: add $18.00
    • More than 2 cubic feet (3,456 cubic inches): add $30.00

Label Your Package Correctly

美国邮政总局提供广泛的运输选择,以帮助您满足您的邮寄需求. 确保你使用的标签与包装相符. 例如,如果您使用的是统一费率框,则还应该使用统一费率标签. 任何以“优先邮件”包装运送的东西都需要一个“优先邮件”标签. 另外,请确保将标签贴在盒子的长边. 标签不应包住两端或边缘,所有条形码应朝向同一方向.

Double-Check the Zone

If you are using PC Postage software, 在打印标签之前,请确认发件人的地址是最新的. Please note USPS charges by zone not by ZIP Codes; use the Domestic Zone Chart to get the zone for your destination ZIP Code. 要按区域和重量获得最准确的邮资成本,请使用商业价格计算器.

How did USPS streamline the APV process?

美国邮政投资了新的APV技术,可以自动检测和纠正某些包裹邮资的多付或少付.

How does APV improve the package verification process?

APV在处理过程中捕捉到某些邮资不符的情况,并直接向托运人贷记或借记. 这使得美国邮政更少地依赖于较慢的手动邮件到期验证过程. In the manual process, 邮资不一致的邮件要么退回寄件人更正,要么送到目的地, in which case the recipient must pay the postage due. This process may delay shipments, 而且/或者收件人可能会意外地支付额外的邮资, which erodes the quality of the customer experience. 有些邮件没有正确支付,没有被APV检测到,可能会被手动处理邮资到期.
