What USPS postal class should I use to ship to my APO/FPO location?
APO Box customers have three US Postal Service (USPS) parcel shipping options to select from for your APO/FPO shipments. Each of the postal classes has different cost and speed advantages. At APO Box you can select the default shipping class you want via your customer control panel or via custom shipping requests for specific boxes.
