Insured Mail

Purchased at a Post Office
Insured mail provides coverage against loss or damage up to $5,000 for Parcel Post and Media Mail matter as well as merchandise mailed at Priority Mail or First-Class Mail prices. Items may not be insured for more than their value. Insured mail must be presented to a retail employee at a Post Office or to a rural carrier.

For an additional fee, insured mail may be combined with Delivery Confirmation or Signature Confirmation. For items insured for more than $200, restricted delivery and return receipt service are also available. The amount of insurance coverage for loss is the actual value, less depreciation. No claim payments are made for sentimental losses or for any expenses incurred as a result of the loss.
