The U.S. Postal Service has introduced its Priority Next Day delivery service, currently available in 54 markets, aimed at e-commerce businesses needing reliable and cost-effective shipping. This service allows packages up to 20 pounds to be shipped within 150 miles of regional centers. As the service expands, it plans to reach approximately 295 million customers nationwide. This initiative helps the Postal Service compete more effectively against FedEx and UPS by shifting towards direct shipping, enhancing its financial sustainability amid evolving market dynamics.
