If you want to send a package to soldiers in Iraq or Afghanistan (and you want it to get there by Christmas), the cut-off for space available mail is November 27. Space available mail (SAM) is first transported domestically by surface and then to overseas destination by air on a space-available basis.

December 4 is the deadline for packages sent by priority or first-class mail.

Check with your local post office for deadlines for packages mailed within the United States.
