Package right put in place for sorting (6)
I believe the answer is:
parcel
'package' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'right put in place for sorting' is the wordplay.
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'put in' indicates putting letters inside.
'for sorting' indicates an anagram (letters sorted into a new order).
'place' is an anagram of 'pacel'.
'r' placed inside 'pacel' is 'PARCEL'.
(Other definitions for parcel that I've seen before include "Paper-wrapped package" , "Package; piece of land" , "Small piece of land" , "'Bundle, package (6)'" , "Something wrapped up in package, as for posting" .)
