Sending wrapped presents to the US

We're not going to the US for Christmas this year, so we need to send our gifts over. Can you wrap the presents that you ship? I usually don't wrap things, but since I'll be sending multiple gifts for different people in one box I'd like to wrap them. I wasn't sure how this flies with US security.

Thanks!

Ive always heard that you shouldnt do it, but my husand has sent me a few wrapped gifts in the past and they were always still wrapped when I received them. I say wrap them - the worst that can happen is they will be unwrapped by the time they get there. I just took a look at the USPS website, and I dont see a mention of it.

I've sent wrapped presents several times & also received the same just fine.  They often use x-rays and scanners anyway, so a bit of paper isn't going to make a huge difference.  Other people may have different experiences *shrug*.

Thanks guys. I think I'm just going to risk it. If they unwrap them, then oh well!

I sent a big box via Parcelforce last year, all wrapped - everything arrived in the exact same condition.

Same here, although it arrived mid January

I've never sent unwrapped presents! Either to or from the UK! You'll be fine.

Just a note, I don't know if this is relevant with your case, but you cannot send alcohol through mail in the United States.

My husband's family sends us wrapped gifts whenever they mail something for birthdays and Christmas. We've never had a problem yet. 

You can send the wrapped, but if what your mailing get's searched they'll unwrap it.
