Your Postmaster will tell you the parcel post zone in which your postoffice is located, measuring from Chicago.
All merchandise shipped by mail takes parcel post rates. Packages up to 4 ounces in weight are carried at the rate of 1 cent an ounce, regardless of distance. Packages over 4 ounces are charged for by the pound. The rate per pound varies according to the distance, which is measured by the Government zone system, each zone covering a certain number of miles from point of shipment. Distances and rates are shown in the table below. Packages carried by parcel post are handled just like any other mail matter. They are delivered to your box by your rural mail carrier if you live on a rural route, or delivered to your door if you live in a city where there is carrier service, or delivered to your local postoffice if you live where there is no carrier service.
Within Local Zone and Zones 1 and 2 packages up to 50 pounds in weight are carried. The limit of weight for all other zones is 20 pounds. Articles measuring more than 7 feet in length and girth combined cannot be shipped by parcel post.
The Way to Return Goods to Us by Parcel Post.
When you return goods by parcel post, put the letter you write and the bills for the goods (if you have the bills) in an envelope and paste or tie the envelope securely to the outside of the package. In addition to the postage you put on the package, put a stamp on the envelope.
When goods are to be shipped by parcel post , it is not necessary to send stamps to pay the postage for shipping package. Simply add the amount for charges to the amount of the merchandise and include in the money order, check or currency you send us. This charge for mailing must be paid in advance, as no provision has been made for the collection of mailing charge on delivery.
