International Mailing

Due to recent changes at the United States Postal Service (USPS), the cost for sending education books and journals overseas has increased dramatically. However, there are still several options for sending education materials abroad.

One option is to use Airmail M-Bags, which can only be used when sending printed materials to a single address. The M-Bag is literally a large canvas bag with a draw rope at the top. We strongly suggest contact your local post office in advance to confirm they carry M-Bags at their location. There is a maximum weight of 66lbs and a minimum cost of $43.45.

Another low-cost option is sending materials Priority Mail - International. This option tends to get your package to its destination more efficiently then M-Bags. You can find out more about this and the other options for international mailing by consulting the USPS web site. You should consult the web site before sending out any package to obtain the most current rates for international mail as they tend to change often.
