Shipping Just Got Cheaper: The CPRC Has Switched to USPS Ground Advantage 🚚✨

At The Coffee Pod Recycling Co., we’re always looking for ways to make sustainability simpler, more accessible, and more affordable. This week, we made an important improvement to the way we ship our products — one that directly benefits every customer who orders from our website.

For a long time, we used USPS Flat Rate services for all shipments. While Flat Rate is reliable, it often charges more than necessary for lightweight, compact packages like our Coffee Pod Recyclers. After reviewing our shipping patterns and running extensive cost comparisons, we realized there was a better option.

We are excited to share that the CPRC has officially switched to USPS calculated Ground Advantage, now the cheapest USPS service for packages of our size and weight. 🎉

What does this mean for you?

• Lower shipping costs on most orders

• Accurate, distance-based pricing generated directly by USPS

• Continued reliable nationwide delivery

• The same fast service our customers expect, now at a better value

Ground Advantage allows USPS to calculate the exact cost for each shipment based on weight and destination, rather than applying a flat rate that can overcharge smaller packages. In many cases, this means customers will see noticeably reduced fees at checkout.

This change reflects our ongoing commitment to improving the customer experience and keeping our products as accessible as possible. As we grow, we will continue looking for smart, sustainable ways to reduce costs while maintaining the quality and reliability you expect from the CPRC.

Thank you for being part of our mission — and for helping us make coffee pod recycling easier, greener, and more affordable with every order ♻️☕
