| I believe in the principle of Due Process  |
Now that my son and d-i-l are at the new duty station in Europe, I need to find out the details of mail and shipping packages to them, and vice versa. How long does it take? What cost? Any limits on what can be sent? I wanted to ship some Tony’s clam chowder. Neither Tony nor Amazon would/could handle it. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | ||

Buy it, place in a sturdy box, place address and take it to the post office. Easy, really. If you're goin' through hell, keep on going. Don't slow down. If you're scared don't show it. You might get out before the devil even knows you're there. NRA ENDOWMENT LIFE MEMBER | |||

you will pay the shipping to the APO address, which is the same as shipping to a similar zipcode, as in no international mail pricing, get a scale, use the online calculator at USPS and you can click and ship the labels, and just drop off, shipping canned goods in a large or med flat rate box would probably be your best bang for the buck depending on how close you are to the APO location (mail wise,) when a friend was in the sandbox, from RVA to his APO, 9 lbs was the magic number to make a Med flat rate box beneficial as far as cost (he got a 10 lb package about once a month) IIRC you can only ship APO via USPS https://chandlersfirearms.com/chesterfield-armament/ | |||

Shipping a package to an APO is treated the same as if it were going to somewhere in the USA and the rates apply too. My Dad used to ship me snacks and newspapers from home as part of care packages to Germany when I was in the Army, and I used to ship German goodies home to him. | |||

Any idea about delivery time? For birthdays, etc. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way.

Shipping from the U.S. to an APO in Europe means that piece of mail arrives at the APO (east coast) and travels via U.S. military transport to the U.S. military base, never leaving U.S. mil control - so there is no required customs form. Being overseas, your lifeline is mail order - and you could possibly have a local mailing address to mail order items that will not usually ship to APO addresses. Those incoming items go through customs. | |||

not really, the first run is usually the best test, when I was mailing to Kuwait and Iraq, it was about 10-12 days IIRC, 2 days to the APO, the rest to the base mailbox https://chandlersfirearms.com/chesterfield-armament/ | |||
