It looks like USPS is definitely making waves with their price hikes. While the Delivering for America plan sounds ambitious, it seems that the plan is being funded by the wallets of everyday Americans, especially small business owners.
The hikes, particularly on services like USPS Ground Advantage and Parcel Select, are certainly noticeable.
But, the silver lining is that First-Class and Forever stamps have been spared for now, offering a brief respite for personal mailings.
For small businesses, the increased shipping costs could add up quickly, especially when many rely on USPS for cost-effective shipping solutions.
If you’re a small business owner or just someone who frequently uses USPS, you might want to adjust your budget or explore other shipping options.
It seems the USPS is pushing forward with modernization and an electric vehicle fleet, but at what cost to consumers? As always, we’ll have to keep an eye on the situation and see if these price hikes have any long-term benefits—or if they’ll simply result in more frustration for users.
