I am in a different place and I want to mail something to my home through China Post. Since it is my first time to mail something, I don’t know how to mail it. I hope you can help me. Thank you.

If you are not sure, you can call the local 11185. Here are some steps for reference only:

1. Pack your things. If you don’t have a box, you can go directly to the post office If you buy something large that may be broken, you can pack it in a cloth bag without sealing it. The salesperson will check it.

2. Mail to the local post office. The postage is determined based on distance, weight and speed. Generally speaking, the farther the journey, the heavier the weight, and the faster the speed, the higher the cost. There are three types of postal services: regular parcel, express parcel and express delivery. It usually takes about 7-15 days for regular packages, 7 days for express packages, and 3 days for express delivery.

3. After delivery, the salesperson will give you the receipt. You can ask him if he has added a text message reminder. The text message reminder means that the item has been delivered to the recipient, and the postal service will send a text message to the sender. This way you know the other person has received your stuff. SMS reminders are 1 yuan/message. I suggest you add it.

If you haven’t received it for a long time, you can take the receipt and call 11185 directly to check the status of the package.
