Bassmaster Pillar of the Community United States 1130 Posts	Posted 01/15/2014 09:40 am I ordered large flat rate boxes online and got apo fpo. Can you ship an apo fpo box with a large flat rate label to somewhere that is not a military destination? Report this Post to the Staff

I have used whatever address she tells me, but I recall APO/FPO on them before, lately it's been all DPO address. I've sent in a flat rate priority box, she always got the package.

USPS does deliver to APO/FPO sometumes with a discounted Priority Rate. https://www.usps.com/ship/apo-fpo-guidelines.htm If you ship a package in a APO/FPO boxes, and it does not have an APO/FPO address, those idfentifing marks will be marked out by the USPS, it happened to me once.

So I can ship in them just like they are a large flat rate, just mark out the apo fpo if they aren't going to an apo or fpo address? Report this Post to the Staff
