flat rate box
Fixed-cost shipping container
A flat rate box is a shipping container provided by postal services where the cost depends only on the box size, not the weight of its contents.
The U.S.
Postal Service popularized the concept: If it fits, it ships for one price.
Useful for sending heavy items that would otherwise cost more under standard weight-based pricing.
