Has anyone had the situation where the employee wants to open the box and look inside? That is my biggest concern about accepting the Hazmat shops - and the low pay.

The only time I had a box rejected it was because I told them I didn't know what was in it. The rest of the time, the employee accepted it one way or another.@Dandydew wrote:

I've used both lots of times with no problem.@SharPen1 wrote:
Has anyone used the plain yellow bubble envelopes? It says on the instructions that both padded and bubble mailers are acceptable, but I don't want to get caught by a loophole.

The pet food cans are perfect You can usually ship out a large can of 13 oz dog food and box for right over a lb. Or I can grab up 2-4 cans of kitty food. It doesn't usually matter too much if I ship to zone 5 if there are 2 cans or 6 in there with the weight. Kroger will put some brands on sale as low as $0.25 a can at times and I'll stock up.
I do this too! I send food to the animal rescue we got our dog from on the regular box shops. Most weeks they get 3 or 4 boxes from me. I feel like this is a great way to give back. The shelters are very happy to get donations too.

I have never had a Hazmat box ever get shipped, it has always been rejected. I guess that should make me feel good that my USPS locations are doing the right thing but it bothers me that other locations allow these shipments. As someone who gets on a plane, I don't want that stuff in the cargo hold.

Doesn't the post office use FedEx planes to ship stuff?
