USPS & Dimensional Weighing
When processing items using:
• Priority Mail
• Priority Mail Express

The USPS is adopting DIM weight pricing. Dimensional weight involves factoring the
box size into pricing. If the dimensional weight exceeds the actual weight, the shipping
rate is based on the dimensional weight instead. Essentially, the bigger the box, the
higher the cost.
• It will affect all shipments of packages or parcels and will need to calculate for
the corresponding weight, this would be done by external means to the mailing
system.
• Once the weight is calculated you would need to compare the calculated weight to
the actual weight.
• If the actual weight is higher you will proceed using the mailing system platform
(scale).
• If the calculated dimensional weight is higher it would need to be entered manually
into the mailing system, the manual weight would then be used to calculate
the rate.

process your mail.
