I was so tired of long Post Office lines! What a waste of time. I figured I could be at home listing on okay instead. Then, I discovered the convenience of printing all my shipping labels online. The best part of this was now all I had to do was take my packages to the post office and drop them in the box.
However... what if mypackage didn't fit in that drop box? Right... I had to go wait in line.But what if I couldn't get to the Post Office while it was open? What a dilemma.
Then, I discovered the convenience of "scheduling a pickup." In about 1 minute, after setting up an account,Ican go to usps.ge, click on a link at the top, and schedule to have the mail carrier stop by my house and pick up my packages. I can schedulepickups for days later or the very next day. I can tell the mail carrier where the packages will be or I can tell him to ring the bell. I don't even have to be home!!
They do have certain restrictions. Nothing too tragic though. For exapmle, I believe at least 2 of your packages have to be either Priority or Express. That's okay with me because I primarily ship Priority anyway.
This saves so much time for me. Especially on days when I have 15 or so packages. Some of them get a little bulky, which could mean 3 or more back and forth trips from my car to the drop box inside the post office. Imagine if more people utilized these conveniences. There would be a lot fewer people standing in line.
