• Marketing Mail: Big changes are on the horizon, including the elimination of automation basic carrier route letter rates and the creation of a “Heavy Printed Matter” category for parcels. Flats up to 20 ounces could be moved to Marketing Mail, and the Marketing Mail Flat Carrier Route weight limit may increase to 24 ounces. Destination NDC discounts for Marketing Mail are also potentially on the chopping block.
• Bound Printed Matter: This rate structure could be eliminated altogether. Flats would likely move to Marketing Mail.
• Media/Library Mail: We may see the end of 5-Digit and Basic Presort pricing options.
• First Class Mail: An SCF Pallet Discount is being considered. Bundling for First Class Mail Flats prepared in Tubs might be eliminated.
• Other Potential Changes: The Marriage Mail Incentive could be extended. USPS Marketing Mail Parcel dimensions may be updated, potentially leading to a “nonprofit Nonstandard” pricing structure.

The rate increases would affect select commercial and retail domestic competitive parcels, including Priority Mail Express (PME), Priority Mail (PM) and USPS Ground Advantage. Assuming the changes are approved by the Postal Regulatory Committee (PRC), these price increases would go into effect on Oct. 6, 2024, and cease on Jan. 18, 2025.

In their update, the DMM Advisory wrote:

The U.S. Postal Service filed notice today with the Postal Regulatory Commission (PRC) regarding a temporary price change for some package services for the 2024 peak holiday season. This temporary price adjustment is to help cover extra handling costs to ensure a successful peak season.

The planned peak-season pricing, which was approved by the governors of the Postal Service on Aug. 8, would affect prices on the following commercial and retail domestic competitive parcels: Priority Mail Express (PME), Priority Mail (PM) and USPS Ground Advantage. No other products or services would be affected. Pending favorable review by the PRC, the temporary rates would go into effect at midnight Central on Oct. 6 and remain in place until midnight Central on Jan. 19, 2025.

This seasonal adjustment will bring prices for the Postal Service鈥檚 commercial and retail customers in line with competitive practices.

As a strategic part of the 10-year plan, these temporary changes will support the Postal Service in creating a revitalized organization capable of achieving our public service mission 鈥� providing a nationwide, integrated network for the delivery of mail and packages at least six days a week 鈥� in a cost-effective and financially sustainable manner over the long term, just as the U.S. Congress has intended.
