FREE Supplies For Shipping Military Care Packages

Care packages and mail in general can mean the world to service members who are deployed. The United States Postal Service has put together a Military Care Kit with FREE resources to help make it even easier to get a package out to your friends and family that are currently deployed. 

You can ship care packages to military addresses at domestic prices, even if you're sending mail overseas. USPS^® provides free military shipping kits, help with custom forms, military address tips, shipping restriction lists by country, and free package pickup when your shipment is ready to go.

Guidelines for packing, addressing, and shipping items to U.S. troops can be found at USPS.com

Since Priority Mail supplies are the packaging of choice for families preparing care packages for service members overseas, the Postal Service created a “military care-kit” based on the items most frequently requested by military families. The kit is free, and each box is emblazoned with “America Supports You,” which is sure to comfort those who are away from home.
