UPS and FedX don't scan to check contents of packages. They could care less what is in the package, unless they have a tip about shipping fake toner or the DEA dogs stop and sit down in front of a package as they (the dogs) are walking among the packages. And charging a higher fee simply because there is metal in the envelope? That would have to be metal heavy enough to cause the envelope to go over the 1 pound envelope limit. But I'll check with my UPS resources (my son) and at FedX (hubby) anyway.
The only issue I have heard about in the past with clips in envelopes is when the clip makes the envelope bulge or become so odd shaped that the package would have problems going down the belt. |
