Use sturdy cardboard boxes and heavy wrapping paper. Specially made cellophane or masking tape. *Do protect the items you mail - from possible damage. Loose items should be cushioned with newspaper, plastic foam or airpocket padding. Specially pad- ded envelopes can be purchased and used for some items. *Don’t guess the amount of postage needed to mail packages and oversized envelopes. Weigh odd-sized envelopes to be sure adequate postage is used. *Do relax and enjoy receiving holiday mail after all of yours is says Janet Groseclose, super- visor of mail services for the readied and sent.
