postage rate adjustment
A postage rate adjustment refers to changes in the cost of sending mail or packages, often due to reasons like inflation, rising operational costs, or strategic pricing decisions. These adjustments ensure the postal service can continue to provide reliable delivery services. When rates increase or decrease, it affects how much customers pay for mailing items. Typically, these changes are communicated in advance and are associated with specific types of mail or weight classes. Overall, it’s a standard practice to maintain the efficiency and sustainability of postal operations.
