With consumers shopping online more than ever, businesses need to find new, cost-effective ways to compete on speed, price, and convenience to meet customer demand for local delivery.

The U.S. Postal Service is evolving to better meet the needs of our customers – small and large – and to help businesses thrive.  USPS Connect is our new approach to meet the evolving package and mail delivery needs for businesses of all sizes.

This suite of affordable solutions capitalizes on our ongoing network improvements, new processing equipment and increased operational precision.

What’s different about the USPS Connect program? It gives businesses of all sizes direct access to our unmatched delivery network for affordable same-day and next-day delivery and returns in local, regional and national markets.

USPS Connect Local was successfully piloted in select locations and is now being rolled out nationally. This innovative suite of services helps neighborhood businesses and organizations exceed their customers’ expectations with local-to-local delivery.

With USPS Connect Local, we’re empowering Main Street businesses to compete and win in the global e-commerce world.

The Postal Service generally receives no tax dollars for operating expenses and relies on the sale of postage, products and services to fund its operations.
