Postal officials warn 16 ounce or heavier items must go to a postal station not a collection box to avoid misreadings of bombs. Use sturdy packaging, avoid masking tape, and consider insurance and delivery confirmation. For 2000 holiday deadlines, international and military mail dates vary by region, with Dec 11 for many air and first class items and earlier dates for surface and APO/FPO mail.
