Properly Securing Bundles of Flats
Please note that as of July of 2025, the Postal Service no longer permits using rubber bands and twine or string for securing bundles of flats, with the exception of bundles of First-Class Mail® flats placed in flat trays. All bundles of flats must have two or more cross-strapped bands or be shrink-wrapped with one or more cross-strapped bands, with the exception of newspapers that are placed in a flat tray and entered as exceptional dispatch. Such newspapers may be bundled by using only one strap around the middle of the bundle to prevent damage.

Service Standards File Layouts/Release Notes
The Postal Service is making service standard changes to support Delivering for America network changes. We continue to provide service standard data files for customer use to determine the number of days in transit. This tech sheet will provide file layouts to help customers understand ongoing and upcoming changes associated with the proposed changes. Along with file layout changes, we are now incorporating Presort First-Class Service Standards.
