As we roll on through into May 2025 (yes, already!), we want to keep you in the loop on what’s happening in with your mailing services. Today’s hot topic: the USPS has proposed mid-year price changes for mailing services.
As of April 11th, 2025, the United States Postal Service has filed with the Postal Regulatory Commission (PRC) in regards to the price changes of mailing services planned to take effect July 13th, 2025. Included with the proposed prices is a 5-cent increase in the price of a First-Class Mail Forever stamp, from 73 cents to 78 cents.
Additionally, the Postal Service will be filing two separate price changes with the PRC, for Marketing Mail and Package Service Products (pending commission’s approval).
What does this mean for you? Postalocity.com works in tandem with USPS prices, and will promptly update its services to reflect any approved price changes. Nevertheless, Postalocity.com works to ensure our customers are saving the absolute MOST in time and money. We will continue to provide efficient and quality mailing services.
As noted in previous pricing proposal updates, Postalocity jobs approved after the change date, would reflect the new updated pricing.
Proposed Price Breakdown of First-Class Mail Product Letters (1 ounce) Current - $0.73 cents Proposed - $0.78 cents Letters (metered 1 ounce) Current - $0.69 cents Proposed - $0.74 cents Domestic Postcards Current - $0.56 cents Proposed - $0.62 cents International Postcards Current - $1.65 cents Proposed - $1.70 cents International Letter (1 ounce) Current - $1.65 cents Proposed - $1.70 cents
