USPS @Point Roberts

Does anyone know if the USPS at Point Roberts sell Priority Mail Flat Rate boxes like this one? Can I purchase a single box on the spot to send my parcel?

If you can list the price for the box, it would be even better.

TIA!

Actually, they do. I've been there.
They have lots of different cardboard parcels just lying around. But of course, you'd have to pay for them.

Price... I'm not sure, but you can definitely purchase the parcels there.

Hope that helps!

no, not sure if they sell those there neither ...

comes to think of it, TSB might sell them as a matter of fact ... the best is e-mail them and ask .. or simply bring some down with you, stuff up a small pillow and throw it on the back seat or something ...

Can't tell the size of the box from the pic, but the prices are as follows:

Edit: sorry - just saw the size in the link. $10.70 for that box

Instead of failing you, I will try and explain why you received fails.


UPS = United Parcel Service (courier company)

USPS = United States Postal Service
