How does E Postal Shop works?

 

To have access to the E Postal Shop benefits, the first thing you must do is register. For this, all you need is valid information and a delivery address, and we will assign you an E Postal Shop Member I.D.

Now you can makes purchases on line in your favorite stores in the United States, through the Internet or telephone, including catalog and send the products or documents to your exclusive address in Miami, Florida. From now on E Postal Shop will make sure it is delivered at your home, office or E Postal Shop pick up counter.

We recommend that, in order to make your products arrive at your E Postal Shop in Miami, always use companies that offer a private courier delivery with proof of delivery within the U.S., like UPS-Fedex-DHL Express-LaserShip or even USPS, always ask when you use USPS for EMS service or proof of delivery, since they use tracking systems via Internet and proof of delivery (P.O.D.). We do not recommend using the USPS Shipping option, which only confirms the area or zip code where the package is delivered ( it does not specify who receive the package).

Once the products have arrived in Miami, E Postal Shop will make sure that they arrive safely to you.

For example, if a customer whose name is John Mayer, with E Postal Shop Member I.D. ETT12345 wants to receive a product or document to his address in the U.S., he must enter the following information:

What is a volumetric weight?

We use volumetric weight when determining the weight of the shipments we send and we understand that this is not always an easy concept to grasp. We want to break down the details for you in order to make it as clear as possible.

The cost of transporting a shipment can be affected by the amount of space using in the aircraft, rather than the actual weight. This is the volumetric (or dimensional) weight.

The volumetric weight of a shipment is a calculation that reflects the density of a package. A less dense item generally occupies more volume of space, in comparison to its actual weight.

The volumetric or dimensional weight is calculated and compared with the actual weight of the shipment to ascertain which is greater; the higher weight is used to calculate the shipment cost. Calculating the volume weight:

Volumetric weight is calculated by multiplying the length x height x width of a package and dividing the result by 166 factor. CALCULATE THE VOLUMETRIC WEIGHT OF YOUR SHIPMENT

International Volumetric Weights are calculated using the formula below:

Volumetric Weight in pounds (Length x Width x Height in inches) / 166
