USPS recommends new shipping services prices for 2025

No price changes are being made to Priority Mail Express, Domestic Extra Services, International Ancillary Services, or International Products.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Postal Service filed notice Friday with the Postal Regulatory Commission (PRC) for shipping services price changes to take effect July 13. The proposed adjustments were recently approved by the USPS Board of Governors.

The changes would raise domestic shipping services prices approximately 6.3 percent for Priority Mail service, 7.1 percent for USPS Ground Advantage and 7.6 percent for Parcel Select. Prices are not changing for Priority Mail Express service.

Although mailing services price increases are based on the consumer price index, shipping services prices are primarily adjusted according to market conditions. The USPS governors believe these new rates will keep the Postal Service competitive while providing the agency with needed revenue.

As part of the 10-year comprehensive strategic Delivering for America plan, these proposed changes will support the Postal Service in creating a revitalized organization capable of achieving its public service mission — providing a nationwide, integrated network for the delivery of mail and packages at least six days a week — in a cost-effective and financially sustainable manner over the long term, just as the U.S. Congress has intended.

The Postal Regulatory Commission (PRC) will conduct a review of the U.S. Postal Service’s proposed price changes before they are implemented. The full filing, including rates for all USPS products, is available on the PRC’s website under the Daily Listings section at prc.arkcase.com/portal/filings, listed under Docket No. CP2025-7 for Competitive Products. Price tables can also be viewed on the Postal Service’s Postal Explorer website at pe.usps.com/PriceChange/Index.
