Actually, I believe the limit is 70 lbs. I think you have to use their Flat Rate boxes [they're free and they have several sizes and shapes with different postage costs], and I think part of the reason for the limit is the strength of the boxes. Their slogan is, "If it fits, it ships," which may not be exactly totally true :-) We use them to send care packages to the US troops we adopt and they work great.
