Documents of no commercial value

I'm filling out details on ups and there is a small box to tick that says

Documents of no commercial value

What does this mean please?

Does it mean there's an invoice inside.

It's parcel for private use from one residential address to another residential address. From family to family.

It is asking if the contents are papers with no value, or if there is items in it that have a value.

You tick it if you are only posting documents.

Yes, though I've sometimes put in my number before for both sender and recipient.

You are not being asked to rate the value of the contents.

It is a protective measure to deter "opportunists" from "mis delivering" the package
