I encountered two difficulties while using this:

1. You need to be able to identify the parts of an address. Don’t know which numbers are the postal code and which are street numbers (it can sometimes be very hard to tell)? Try using this site:

.

2. It asks for the weight of your package. I didn’t know the weight, so I just put in “1 pound, 0 ounces,” and then had the postal worker weigh the package when I got to the post office, and he wrote the value in with a pen.

If you can handle those two tricky things, this is a great way to spend less time at the post office, and more time focusing on your missionary!
