postal rates

Stamp price schedule

Postal rates are the fees charged for mail delivery, varying by weight, size, destination, and speed of service.

The phrase typically appears in discussions of price changes: Postal rates are going up again next month.

A single fee is usually called postage rather than a postal rate.
