Will i still need the Priority Mail Flat Rate Box?

Can I cut up a USPS priority mail box, turn it inside out, and then ship it as a regular box and not flat rate?

  • Is it illegal to cut up any USPS priority mail box or letter, turn it inside out, tape it back together with the priority mail markings inside the box and not outside, and ship it not flat rate, but just as a regular brown box?

  • Answer:

    No, you cannot. If you get caught, they can bust you on federal fraud.

No you cannot do this I once wanted to do the same thing but there is still words on the inside so the USPS know that it was turned inside out and also it says this is against the law and you cant ship something in a flat rate box and not ship it flat rate sorry bud but youll just have to find yourself a new box!
