How do you know which USPS boxes are 8.95 or 12.95 ??

Question

I have one box that is 12 x 12 x 8.5''

Then i have another that is 11 x 9 x 6''

It doesnt say how much they are ?!?!?

They are both Priority mail boxes.

And the smaller dimension box says "flat rate box" on it. The bigger box just says "mailing box"...so is the biggerr box not a flat rate box? I am confused?

I cant how much they are on their website either...thanks

Answer 1

the larger box is not flat rate.

Flat Rate Boxes are available in multiple sizes and shapes.

The “shirt” box (11" x 8.5" x 5.5")

The “shoe” box (13.625" x 11.875" x 3.375"),

The Priority Mail Large Flat Rate Box, (12" x 12" x 5.5") is 50 percent larger than the other two Flat Rate Boxes

Priority Mail® Large Flat-Rate Box $12.95  

Priority Mail® Flat Rate Box          $9.80
