Ashes, police evidence, animals: weird things that are mailed to the USA

Author of the channel "Simple America" ​​on Yandex.Zen works at the post office in the USA. She shared her experience about the strange packages Americans send. Next - from the first person.

Here is a small list of what I have to deal with at work.

1. Ashes of dead people and animals

It surprises many, but there is nothing unusual about it. Such boxes are sent in the fastest way possible, and these parcels should never be thrown or dropped. Postmen often say that the most difficult part of their job is delivering such boxes, because the recipient carefully checks their safety, and the postman is required to obtain his signature after delivery.

2. Living things

Chickens, ducklings, iguanas, frog eggs and frogs themselves, ladybugs, fish, bees, forage insects and so on pass through my hands almost every day. And it was at the post office that I first saw little peacocks! This zoo cheers up.

3. Police evidence

Blood, urine, and saliva samples. These boxes are wrapped in evidence tape.

4. Tests and samples

DNA tests, coronavirus tests, laboratory studies of water and soil from all kinds of parks in the United States and not only, various medical results, including X-rays.

5. Unusual letters

For example, from prisons or for celebrities.

6. Goods without packaging

A label is often stuck on a toy and that's it.

And, of course, we send documents, car numbers, passports, purchases, accept returns from stores and much more.

We work according to protocols and strict schedules, so the handling of evidence, ashes and living things will differ in terms of rules.

The post office work is pretty hard, but at the same time interesting. It is very rare that a shift goes without something funny.
