We get hundreds, if not thousands, of parcels going out from our office daily, and we're not returning packages under two pounds. I guess your local PM must be using his own discretion. I'll have to ask my Station Manager if he knows of any tighter standards up your way. We don't hold up parcels that use metered postage, so I assume you are using stamps. I often verify stamped packages for my own customers, to save them a trip to the office... the whole point is for us to know who the mailers are. If your mailman knows you, he might be willing to get your stamped items round-dated for you when he returns to the office. I do this regularly for the customers I know. But it's also possible your local PM won't allow this. It won't hurt to ask. Just make sure your return address is on the package, that it isn't leaking an oily, nitroglycerin-like substance, that there's no wires hanging out of the seams, and that it isn't ticking. I once had a Federal judge living on my route when someone was mailing bombs to Federal judges. All packages to her were x-rayed by the Postal Inspectors before we would deliver them.
