First class parcels or letters have a priority. They reach their destination faster. This is important if there is a need for the addressee in your city to receive the shipment as soon as possible. If you literally decipher the VGPO, then it will sound like "intracity mail, which has priority in expedited dispatch and delivery."
Letters
If the urgency and value of the letter is high (to be negotiated during registration), and the urban area is large, it can be delivered to the addressee by small air transport. It is in this case that it is guaranteed that your letter will reach its final destination in half a day. The smallest bag measures 114 x 162 mm. The maximum is 250 x 253 mm. In a bag of this size, you can put not only documents, but also some small items. The maximum weight is five hundred grams. You can purchase envelopes at the post office or at the Soyuzpechat kiosks.
Parcel post
The smallest parameters of the shipment are 11 by 19 cm. The sum of such parameters as width, length and height should not exceed seventy centimeters, otherwise it will already be called a parcel. The parcel should not weigh more than two and a half kilograms. Such a shipment is ideal for unbreakable and not heavy items, and besides, the price will be lower than that of the parcel.
Package
The smallest parcel size is 11 by 19 cm, and the largest is a maximum of thirty-six centimeters in length. The degree of safety of things in this type of parcel will be higher. Before shipment, it is proposed to make an inventory of all items and insure them. You will not go broke, but you will be calm and protected from various troubles.
Who is the sender
Few of the ordinary citizens will send a letter or a parcel of the VGPO in the first class, unless, of course, this is so important and does not require fast delivery. Being in the same locality with the recipient, it is easier for us to send an e-mail, contact through a social network or just call.
But those who do this often are state organizations: - The military registration and enlistment office sometimes needs to inform conscripts about a medical commission or about military service fees. - The bank needs to warn the client about the debt or other important information. - The educational institution needs to convey information to the students. - The public service announces important changes. - The court summons to a hearing. - The tax office notifies about changes in tax legislation.
The organization in this way tries to convey important information to its client or to serve documents when it is impossible to do it in another way.
Receiving
This procedure is not difficult at all. First you need to read the postal notice. The form contains the address of the post office where an important document awaits you. Sometimes the opening hours and lunch break at the institution are indicated. You must have the received notification and passport with you. On the spot, a questionnaire is filled out and you will be given the sent documents.
If you have received a notice of the parcel, there is no need to rush headlong to the post office. At least you have a few days to receive correspondence. If you have a notice on a court case in your hands, then the storage period for such a letter is 7 days. In other cases, you have thirty days to contact the post office.
Is it possible to send such a shipment yourself
You do not need to be a legal entity to send such a parcel yourself. Let's say you live in the same city with a relative or acquaintance who urgently needs to transfer important documents, but you cannot personally do this. - First of all, you need to respect the size and weight of the envelope. Sometimes you need to put something else in there besides papers. And this is permitted. - Put everything you need in an envelope and indicate your address, delivery address and the name of the recipient. Otherwise, the package will return to you, and this is wasted money. - Give your envelope to the postal worker and inform about your desire to send the item in first class. - It is necessary to fill out the notification form if you want the recipient to know the complete information about the correspondence without ever arriving at the post office. - It is possible to set up an SMS notification and then you will know for sure about the delivery. - When preparing a parcel, you need to pack it well. To do this, use foam rubber, synthetic winterizer, pimpled film. - Packing material can be purchased from the post office. If you are using your own material, make sure there are no extraneous stamps. - If you want to insure the shipment against any unforeseen incidents on the way, add an additional amount. - Be sure to keep all receipts. In some situations, this will help to get money back for services.
Thus, class 1 intracity mailing (VGPO) is one of the few services at the post office, which guarantees you a quick and high-quality result.
Here are some testimonials from people who have used this service. Angelina: “With the help of this shipment, I was informed that I had submitted my tax return incorrectly, and I need to correct all the shortcomings as soon as possible. Otherwise, they may be fined."
Vasily: “I did my compulsory military service, but five years later a courier delivered me an urgent package. Later it became known that he was from the military registration and enlistment office. I was informed about the need to go through military training”.
Peter: “I got the notice from the mailbox. It said that the mail should receive a package with important information. I learned that the letter was from the district court, which I must visit shortly."
Alexey: “I received a letter from the bank about the need to completely close the loan. I was extremely surprised by this news, since I paid the last installment a month ago. It turned out that it was necessary to pay the remaining 240 rubles, which, in my ignorance, could again grow into a solid amount. Thank you so much for being so honest."
