What are First-Class Mail Flats Retail rates?

First-Class Mail

First-Class Mail is one of USPS's least expensive, most immediate options for mailing postcards, letters, large envelopes (flats), and parcels. Learn more about USPS domestic services.

First-Class Mail Flats are not eligible for tracking. If you need to mail a lightweight package that includes tracking, ShippingEasy recommends First-Class Mail Package Service.

Large Envelope / Flats

Large Envelope Flats is a special service within First-Class Mail. Flats are large envelopes smaller than 11.5" x 15" but larger than a regular envelope. Regular Envelopes are the standard business envelopes. This product range includes the popular No.10 envelope, which measures 9-1/2" long x 4-1/8" high.

Compare with First-Class Mail® Forever® Stamp

USPS offers Forever Stamps that value at the same price as a regular First-Class Mail stamp, regardless of the rate when you purchased it.

You can send 1 oz (about four sheets of regular, 8-1/2" x 11" paper in an envelope) anywhere in the U.S. Envelopes must be rectangular and made of paper to qualify for letter prices. Your envelope can be a maximum of 11-1/2" long x 6-1/8" high. You can fold what you put in your envelope, but it needs to stay flat—no more than 1/4" thick.

You can use two Forever Stamps if you need to send a package or a letter that weighs more than an ounce.

Anything weighing over 3 oz would cost $1.80 at the current value of a Forever Stamp and only $1.68 using First-Class Mail Large Envelopes / Flats.
