Determining The Right Postage
If you are mailing something other than a standard letter (weighing greater than 3.5 ounces), you will need to weigh the letter/package to ensure that the correct postage is used. You can weigh your item at the Post Office or with an office/home postal scale. Visit the USPS Postage Price Calculator to figure out the correct postage to use for your mail. Note that the maximum weight you can ship under First-Class Mail is 13 ounces. The package/letter becomes Priority Mail above 13 ounces.
