How big can a letter "package" be?

Can I send a very small, thin, item as a letter (not a package) from Canada to USA?

  • Rather than sending it as a package or small packet, I'd like to send it as a normal letter (ie. toss it in the post box with return address and postage). Would I be able to do this without going through customs/shipping labels and what not? The item is the back of an iPhone 4 (the back plate).

  • Answer:

    Nope. it would not be able to go through the sorting machines that letters go through..It would gum up the machine and be spit out...and opened. It needs to go in a small brown bubble envelope and you will have to fill out the customs declaration and send it from the post office.
