Can one use a shipping label on a standard 4 1/8" x 9 1/2"envelope?

It doesn't really matter what you use as long as you can see the address of the recipient.

Well first, I'd say that's not a good idea. So don't do it and it's also illegal.  Second, even if you steamed it open, it would probably wrinkle the envelope and be obvious to the person who it's meant for.

you may want to consult a sign maker\n\nthey can print you sticky-backed, laser cut vinyl lettering at that sort of size.\n\ncheck your yellow pages for "signmaker"

The only rule I know of is to have it in front of the correct address, clearly marked, and level- also the right height if your carrier has to drive up to it.  \n\nFor any other requirements, just ask at your post office or check out their website.

It depends on what you're shipping.  USPS is usually best for lighter weight envelope type packages, UPS is more economical for heavier packages, FedEx will get it there very fast.\n\nConsider your needs carefully and use the right tool for the job.  You may need to send different shipments through different couriers.

Try going to a uhaul or making your own box from pieces of cardbord. You can even take it to a shipping place and have them wrap it for you. Depending on where you live there should be a mail/shipping place near you. http://www.wrapnship.com/ try a place like this one. You might not be in that state but it is a good example

They'll mail it to your apartment. A lot of apartments will accept "oversized" mail for you. You can always check with them.

Your best source is for you to take the package to your local post office and have them weigh it for you and tell you how much postage you need.\n\nAlso, you may need to fill out a customs  declaration form asking you what you are sending... check with your local post office to make sure, you don't want the package to come back to you or get lost in the mail!

Can do, providing that you bung a wedge in the outer envelope.\n\nI live in Harrogate if that is any help.\n\nI would like to be aware as to whether there is any hazard associated with it ie letter bomb, nerve agent etc

you would have to get a carpenter to do that.\nThe USPS doesn't do that

Your best bet is to go to the different web sites of the major shipping companies.  i.e. FedEx, UPS, DHL, USPS.  There should be a link on each of these sites that allows you to get a quote based on your zip code, the address you need to send it to, and the weight and size of your package.  Also, your package may be oversized which would result in a higher shipping rate.  The web site should have some criteria that defines what oversize is.  After you have done the proper research, choose the lowest quote and ship away.  By the way...What kind of 27" TV weighs 100 lbs.?

I will tell you a secret, but you must promise to tell NO ONE!  Well, except for the people on here that read this.\n\nWhen you address an envelope, switch the "To and From" around.  You know, use the persons address you're sending the letter to as the return address, and your address as the "TO" address.  Then simply drop it into a collection box (NOT your mailbox) without postage.  The Post Office will "Return To Sender" for lack of proper postage.
