Q: What is Certified Mail?
A: Certified Mail is
an “extra” domestic mail service that assigns a unique tracking
number to each article mailed and provides the sender with a legally
recognized proof of both mailing and delivery.
Q: How does Certified Mail
work?
A: Each Click2Mail.com
Certified mail piece is created using a unique tracking number assigned
by the United States Postal Service (USPS). That number is tracked in
your account on Click2Mail.com and can be used to check the delivery
status on the USPS web site. A signed and dated Return Receipt
(green card or electronic) is optional for an additional fee.
You may also request Restricted Delivery service which requires a specified
person or their authorized agent to sign for the mail piece. Certified
Mail is available for U.S. addresses only.
Q: Why Certified Mail?
A:
There are many reasons why sending Certified Mail with Click2Mail
makes good sense. Among them:
- It’s urgent:
The need for someone to officially sign for your mail piece adds a sense
of urgency
- It’s
official: Certified Mail is a widely-recognized mechanism for
delivering legal documents and notices.
- It’s traceable:
Someone at the delivery address must sign for your mail piece. With
Restricted Delivery a specific person (or their agent) must sign
for it. Delivery status is available online.
Q: Are there different types
of Certified Mail?
A: Yes.
- Certified
Mail. Provides a unique tracking number that you can check
online to confirm that your mail piece arrived at its destination. The
letter carrier is allowed to deliver the mail to anyone who receives
mail at that address.
- Certified
Mail with Return Receipt (the green card). For an additional
fee, a return receipt green card is attached to the mail piece and then
signed and dated by the recipient upon delivery and returned to you
by mail.
- Certified
Mail with Electronic Return Receipt. For an additional fee (less
than the green card), an electronic version of the return receipt is
captured as a PDF document that includes an image of the recipient’s
signature or an approved hand-stamp. These are made available in your
Click2Mail account.
- Certified
Mail with Return Receipt and Restricted
Delivery.
Adding restricted delivery service to the return receipt restricts delivery
to the actual addressee or an authorized agent.
