What are postal contracts?

Postal contracts are agreements between individuals or companies and a postal service, such as the United States Postal Service (USPS), to provide mail delivery or related services on behalf of the postal agency. These contracts often involve transporting and delivering mail along specific routes, especially in rural or hard-to-reach areas. Contractors use their own vehicles and resources to fulfill the terms of the contract and are compensated based on the volume of mail or the length of the route. Postal contracts help expand the reach of postal services beyond what is feasible with regular postal employees alone.

While both roles involve mail handling, Postal Contracts are often temporary or project-based, whereas Mail Carriers are regular employees. Understanding these differences helps job seekers find the right position in the postal industry.
