    akdave and I had a good offline conversation about this. We are in the process of adding USPS to our available shipping options. While it is not complete, his feedback was great, and we are working on getting this moved along further. Our original plan was to add extra USPS options earlier this fall, but decided not to as we didn’t want to make a big change in our “busy season”. As we are getting into the first of the year and things will start slowing down, we will make more progress here, and hopefully in a month or so we will have a full implementation. We will get the order for akdave out, and he is going to be one of our guinea pigs on running a few USPS things through. Thanks akdave ! We are glad you spoke up and gave us some feedback, and we hope that it will be a much better and easier process for shipping for you and our other Alaska customers soon!

    If anyone else has other feedback about Meatgistics or Walton’s, please, always feel free to share it. Everything doesn’t always have a quick and easy fix, but we do always appreciate hearing from our customers and we will always try to find ways to make the entire process for everyone easier!

                  akdave I’ve got a friend in Anchorage who did the same thing after retirement from the Army. He catches a military hop to Travis a couple times a year to come down to Nor Cal & visit friends & family.

                    Hey - How do I get Waltons to ship USPS to AK? I just called the other day and it was $65 for 3 packages of seasoning and casing. I mentioned to lady it would be great if they could ship USPS to AK. I ordered it and had to use a freight forwarding company so it will take much longer and a little more money (but not $65) to get here. Thanks

                      MAD KK I thought Austin set up USPS to Alaska about a year ago, reference AKDave. You might want to tie out with Austin and see if it is still available.

                              Not exactly related to the OP’s concern, but sort of.

                              I do a lot of buying and selling from individuals who may be infrequent sellers and not set up for prepaid shipping labels. For those not familiar with them, you can set up a free account with USPS, Fedex, or UPS and purchase prepaid shipping labels on line.

                              For the convenience of sellers, and to get the best shipping rate for me, I will often offer to email the seller a prepaid shipping label that he can print out and slap on the box with my purchase. The seller can then just drop off at the post office or Fedex store without waiting in line. This gives me a choice on shipping and usually a better price than the seller can get. It gives the seller the convenience of not having to figure out shipping rates and logistics. Win-Win.

                                To make it even more convenient if it is a priority or express mail product they will come to you for the pickup saving the trip to the post office.
