Can a magnet be mailed?

Question

Client side optimization

I'm running a contest and giving away fridge magnets. Is it possible to send by mail, for example, 100 letters with magnets. Each envelope contains 1 magnet. Is this against any rules or laws?
And what is the best way to do this so that the letters do not stick together when sent?

Answer 1

You can only send magnets as a parcel. For international shipments, there is also the “Small Packet” service.

Answer 2

Fridge magnets are not that powerful - sending magnets from hard drives is already hell for mail ...
You can wrap the magnets themselves with a small layer of foam - and it will be safer - and it will be easier to separate letters from each other, although I'm sure that they they will not stick together if each magnet is wrapped with at least a 5 mm layer of foam. As an option, buy a thicker layer and an incision in it, into which you stick a magnet.

Answer 3

It is quite possible.
About stickiness: this is more of a postal task, after receiving the envelopes they sort them, and so on.

Answer 4

I remember once in childhood, I put an ordinary audio cassette into an envelope, climbed through the mail slot of the box with great effort :)
True, I still don’t know whether that letter reached or not.

Answer 7

I have a magnet hanging on the refrigerator of some service center for household appliances. They made it like this: a self-adhesive with an advertisement is stuck on a thin, about 2 mm thick magnetic rubber. The area of ​​the magnet is a matchbox. This magnet holds well (but not tightly) on the refrigerator and in general I liked it. I accidentally never brushed it off, and the desire to stick it was decided by a good design of the advertisement.
And this magnet came to me by letter complete with a detailed price list.

Answer 8

A few years ago I didn't even get a letter with a small stack of photographs, up to 5 mm thick. I think the parcel will be more reliable.
