Parcel Poat la Beat for Light, Mallable Packages weighing up to 40 or 50 pounds.
However, packages weighing up to 70 pounds, and of limited size, can be sent
by parcel post in all postal zones. Explosives, inflammable articles and poisons
cannot be sent by parcel post, with the exception of germicides, insecticides
and fungicides, which are permitted.
Include Enough Money for Postage, if you want your goods shipped by parcel
post. Don't hesitate to send too much as any over-payment will be refunded .
Pay Postage on Total Weight. As you write your order, note the shipping weight
of each item as stated in its description and enter the shipping weights in the last
two columns on the right of the order blank. Be sure to list pounds in one column
and ounces in the other. Then, after adding, change the ounces to pounds (16
0ounces to a pound). Show the total weight of parcel post items in pounds.
Always remember that on packages weighing t>VeT one pound, the postoffice counts
a fraction of a pound as a full pound and charges postage accordingly. F&r example,
if the total weight of your order is 7 pounds and 1 ounce, the postoffice charges
the parcel post rate for 8 full pounds. Therefore, you could include additional
articles weighing 15 ounces without having to pay one cent more for postage. It
means extra savings for you when you bwld up your order to full pounds.
Refer to the Parcel Poat Table at Left for the correct amount to include for
postage. In the first column of the Parcel Post table, find the total sl:f!pping
weight of your order. Follow through to the right to determine the parcel post
charge required according to the zone you live in from your nearest Spiegel
shipping point.
For example, suppose you live in Troy, Alabama and plan to send a 27-pound
parcel post order to Spiegels and your nearest Spiegel shipping point is Birming–
ham, Alabama. Since Troy is about 135 miles from Birmingham, you would pay
Zone 1-and-2 rates.
So, turning to the Parcel Post Rate table, you simply look down the first column
of weights until you come to 27 pounds. Then follow over to the right lo the
Zone l-and-2 column and you find that the postage on 27 pounds is just '!7c.
