The USPS wants their supplies back and fast; pallets, mail tubs, equipment

The United States Postal Inspection Service has become more aggressive in their quest to find and return Postal Service materials back to the USPS. These pieces, collectively known as Mail Transport Equipment (MTE) have grown to cost the Postal Service nearly $50 million per year in replacement expenses. Criminal prosecution for theft or misuse of postal property, is a federal crime that carries a penalty of up to 3 years in prison and/or a fine of up to $250,000.

Pallets cost up to $20 each, plastic/paper letter trays up to $2.75 per tray and those “PROPERTY OF UNITED STATES POSTAL SERVICE” tubs cost around $4 each, losses add up quickly. If you are aware of the misuse of postal equipment, please contact the Postal Inspection Service or the transport equipment hotline.

The amnesty period to return MTE, is November 12-26, 2011. Anyone possessing Postal Service MTE is strongly encouraged to return it during this window; no questions asked.
