The new Priority Mail Large Flat-Rate Box (12' x 12' x 5 1/2' or nearly 800 cubic inches) will be available in Post Offices nationwide beginning March 3, but customers can begin ordering them now at /supplies or by calling 80. The new, larger box extends the Postal Service's line of successful flat-rate offerings, providing more choices for small businesses and consumers. The current flat-rate boxes, introduced in November 2004, give customers a single, predetermined rate regardless of the weight or delivery zone. 'Our new, bigger box gives customers even more room to send items across the country, with one flat price, regardless of how much they weigh or how far they're going.' 'Flat-rate shipping is the best value in the marketplace,' said Postmaster General John Potter.

If it fits, it ships, for just $12.95 to any US address beginning March 3. The new box is 50% larger than the current flat-rate boxes.

The Postal Service has launched a new box for larger shipments, giving customers three different size and shape options, all with convenient flat-rate pricing, to meet their shipping needs.
