USPS launches new delivery system in Nebraska for small businesses

"It gives those small businesses an opportunity to compete with the larger businesses"

LINCOLN. Neb. (KLKN) – Nebraska is one of the only states as of right now that will benefit from a new delivery program from the U.S. Postal Service.

The new program called USPS Connect will help local businesses and their customers get same-day and next-day delivery.

For example, packages dropped off before 7 a.m. will be delivered on the same day.  And if doesn’t make it there, it will arrive the next day.

USPS Connect will also include Sunday delivery and pick-up options.

Officials say the process is very easy all companies big and small can use this service.

“It gives those small businesses an opportunity to compete with larger businesses,” said Mark Inglett, USPS strategic communications specialist.

Business owners can get signed up for the new service at usps.com.
