How do you become a contractor for the US postal service?
Yes. We are an American territory and American citizens. We do have the US Postal Service and the postal rates are the same as they are in the continental US.
The Postal Service, like the US Government, is self-insuring.
The United States Postal Service is abbreviated USPS.
The US postal service charges about $1,00 for a package with insured valued of $200 for an air mail package being sent to Australia. There are no fees for packages under $200.
I am wondering what the rates for the US postal service are, where can I find a US postal rate chart?
US Postal Service
"The US Postal Service currently employs thousands of men and women as letter carriers." You would use "US Postal Service" as if it were the name of a company, and mail carriers, post office clerks, etc. are employees of that company. For all intents and purposes, you can think of the US Postal Service as being like a company that is owned by the US government.
