"In this, the age of ordering everything online, you probably know your delivery drivers a lot better than you used to - to say nothing of the mail carrier you see every day but Sunday. They make sure our packages and parcels arrive on time, rain or shine, and all year long we bank on them to get what we need, whether the mail contains essentials for our lives or just fun little treats we've been eagerly awaiting."
"The United States Postal Service (USPS) website says: "Carriers are permitted to accept a gift worth $20 or less from a customer per occasion, such as Christmas. However, cash and cash equivalents, such as checks or gift cards that can be exchanged for cash, must never be accepted in any amount. Furthermore, no employee may accept more than $50 worth of gifts from any one customer in any one calendar year period.""
"Need some cute ideas on what exactly to gift your mail carrier? Here are some ideas from Kim Frum, a senior public relations representative for the USPS, that fit within their gifting guidelines: Bottles of water or sports drinks Candy bars Drawings and cards Gift bags with hand sanitizer, chapstick, Hot Hands, or snacks Gift cards for coffee shops or restaurants that are $20 or less (No cheating and giving multiple cards of $20 each - any gift must be $2"
Delivery drivers and mail carriers deliver packages and mail year-round and are frequently encountered by customers. Mail carriers are federal employees and must follow USPS gift rules that limit gifts to $20 or less per occasion and prohibit cash or cash-equivalent items; employees cannot accept more than $50 in gifts from one customer in a calendar year. Drivers for private carriers like FedEx, UPS, and Amazon may accept higher-value gifts and cash. Practical, token gifts such as bottled drinks, candy, cards, hand sanitizer, chapstick, hand warmers, snacks, and modest gift cards are convenient, appreciated, and make daily work easier.
