What is Mixed Weight
Customers may use the Mixed Weight specification to present items of differing weight bands but of the same format (Large Letters or Parcels) in a single container (bags, trays or Sleeved Yorks) subject to the usual maximum weight limit instead of having to use separate containers for each of the different weight bands of the same format.
Customers create a separate discrete manifest for their Mixed Weight postings that is uploaded to DocketHub.
On the Mixed Weight manifest the customer declares a container of mailing items of the same format by the number of items in each weight band, and for zonal postings this will also be by each zone within each weight band.
Pricing of each daily posting will be carried out in the same way as now, just bringing together up to three containers into one and as one line on the manifest. Please see the Access User Guide for details on how to present your Mixed Weight postings.
