There are things called International Postal Reply Coupons.  You can
take your padded envelope and sample tape (for weighing purposes) down
to your local Post Office and ask them how many IRQ's to buy in order
to send said envelope back from the U.S.  (Just remember to take the
tape out before sending it to IED :-)  I've done the same from the
U.S., it's a fairly straightforward process.
