Which of the following statements is true regarding mail handling?

All mail must be delivered by 10 AM
Parcel post should be prioritized over first-class mail
Signature Confirmation can enhance delivery security
Express mail is free for local deliveries

The correct answer is: Signature Confirmation can enhance delivery security

The statement regarding Signature Confirmation enhancing delivery security is true because it provides a tracking mechanism that confirms the recipient's identity upon delivery. This service ensures that the mail is not only delivered to the correct address but also to the right person, reducing the risk of mail loss or theft. By requiring a signature, it adds an extra layer of security and accountability, making it a valuable option for important or sensitive shipments. In contrast, the other statements are not accurate. Mail delivery is not universally mandated to be completed by a specific time such as 10 AM; delivery times can vary based on service type and location. Prioritizing parcel post over first-class mail is not standard practice, as first-class mail is often treated as a higher priority due to its faster service. Lastly, Express mail is a paid service, and while it offers expedited delivery, it is not free for any type of delivery, including local deliveries.
