Ironically we are not allowed to deliver packages addressed directly to a P.O. Box.
The revenue on Surepost packages is split based in a negotiated formula.
Yes I'm well aware of that. The topic is Surepost Surepost has two address on it the one that we use to send to the correct post office and the actual consignee address. What I'm saying is on a Surepost pkg is if the secondary address is a PO Box it should go to post office if it's a physical street address we should deliver it.
If we get a PO box address directly it gets address corrected or post carded
Now on a rare occasion I have received pkgs addressed as follows:
John Doe
General delivery
1234 s 20th st (a post office address)
Your town, ST 99999
My post office will refuse it hands down I sheet these as refused NSP
Now here's a fun filled fact I've experienced. If I have a misloaded bag of Surepost for an extended post office , which mind you has NO time in transit guarantee, we will send a shuttle driver 90 miles each way to get those Surepost pkgs there, but a next day air misload to the same 90 mile drive I'm told sheet as missed. Go figure!!
It's all about the reports 8 missed vs 1
