Mail forwarding cost estimator
Forwarding is priced per shipment, not per envelope, which is why the same pile of mail can cost four times as much simply because you asked for it weekly. Put your own numbers in and see where the line sits. Nothing you type leaves your browser.
Your mail
A standard business envelope runs about 0.6 to 1 ounce. A magazine or a thick statement is closer to 4. If half your mail is catalogues, raise the average: weight is what turns a cheap forward into an expensive one.
What the service charges
The defaults sit in the range a padded flat-rate envelope and a modest handling fee usually land in. Postage prices change every year, so put in what your service actually quotes rather than trusting these.
