You cannot ship first class mail with anyone but the USPS in the US, and they are litigious about it.
Yes, you can put documents into a large manila envelope, or in a parcel, but you cannot mail an envelope using FedEx or UPS.
- kube-system 5y agoEven if FedEx did fold your 8.5x11 document into thirds, they still couldn't profitably send it across the country for 58 cents. Nor do any of those other privatized mail services in their smaller home countries.
- missedthecue 5y agoYes because the law mandates they charges higher rates than the USPS. If FedEx could sell first class mail (envelopes) in volume, they could do it profitably.
- kube-system 5y agoJapan, Germany, the UK, Netherlands can’t do it either. They have higher rates than the USPS, smaller service areas, and beg regulators to let them charge more because they struggle to make it profitable.
