Every plan in ShipStation comes with a free Stamps.com account<\/a> (saving you $15.99\/month). Up to now, that’s meant discounted rates, easy SCAN forms and reporting, auto-tracking shipments, and more. We’re adding to that even more: You can now schedule a next-day USPS pickup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’re using our free Stamps.com account, you’re going to see a new tab on the Shipments page, Pickup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you click on that, you just need to enter in a few things (total number of different sorts of packages, total weight, and any special instructions) and all of a sudden, you have a scheduled pickup for the next day!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For those of you with multiple Ship From Locations, you’ll select each location in the sidebar BEFORE entering in package types and weight and scheduling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The only thing to watch out for: you have until 2:00 a.m. to schedule a pickup for that day. So if it’s 1:45 a.m. on Tuesday morning and you schedule a pickup, the USPS will be knocking on your door later on Tuesday. But if you schedule at 2:01 a.m., the pickup will be on Wednesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
