Priority Mail Express

1-2 day guaranteed USPS delivery with money-back guarantee, full tracking, and up to $100 of insurance. Used at our Towne Drive counter for time-critical legal filings, contract delivery, and Etown small business rush orders.

First Class Mail

First Class Mail

Affordable shipping for lightweight packages under 13 ounces and standard letters. 2-5 day delivery with USPS tracking. The cheapest reliable option for small Etown-area shipments that don't justify flat-rate or Priority pricing.

Flat Rate Shipping

Flat Rate Shipping

One stop, four carriers, full packing services on-site. The closest official UPS Customer Center, FedEx Office Print & Ship, and full-service DHL location are all 25+ miles away — we save the round trip.

Walk in any time during business hours — Monday through Saturday, 9 AM to 6 PM. No appointment, no minimum order, no shipping account required.

Questions? We Have Answers.

How is this different from going to the Etown post office?

Same USPS rates, same services, same tracking, minus the line and the limited hours. Our Towne Drive counter is open Mon-Sat 9 to 6, has packing supplies and shipping advice on hand, and the same USPS pickup runs through every business day.

Can I send Certified Mail and Return Receipt from your Etown counter?

Yes. Certified Mail with optional Return Receipt (the green card) is processed at the counter in a few minutes. We provide the receipt with the article number for your records, required for IRS filings, legal service, and contract proof of delivery.

Do you sell Priority Mail flat-rate boxes at the Etown location?

Yes, all USPS flat-rate sizes (small, medium, large, regional) are stocked free at the counter. Flat rate ignores distance and weight up to 70 lbs, so for dense items or shipments to the west coast they often beat UPS Ground and FedEx Ground on price.

Do you sell stamps and shipping supplies?

Yes. We carry stamps, boxes, envelopes, bubble mailers, and all the packing materials you need. Packing materials like boxes and tape are included free when you ship with us.

Can I drop off prepaid USPS packages?

Yes. Bring any prepaid USPS package to our Elizabethtown location. We scan it and get it into the USPS system the same day if dropped off before 3 PM.

What are your hours compared to the post office?

We are open Monday through Saturday 9 AM to 6 PM. The post office has shorter hours and is closed on Saturday afternoons and Sundays. We are here when you need us.
