provide that parcel post be dis
patched and handled with first
class mail, separately from other
parcel post; yes, you can send a
package special delivery for the
proper fees, which are in addition
to the carrying postage.
And what about that 75 pound
package to Parker, Oregon? No,
you cannot mail a 75 pound pack
age anywhere, as 70 pounds is
the limit on parcel posf Besides,
while there is a Parker in Wash
ington, Idaho, and six other
states, there is none in Oregon.
So carefully check your addresses,
and always put your return on
anything you mail. In this case, if
you did not put your return on a
70 pound package to, for instance,
Parker, Wash., it would end up on
the dead parcel post office.
