Address Verification and Address Correction USPS Postal Software
The
term "bulk mail" refers to quantities of mail prepared for mailing
at reduced postage rates. Many mailers pay regular rates even though they are
doing large mailings because they don’t have the time, or it’s
just not cost effective for their business.
The United States Postal Service offers discounts for bulk mailings if
you do some of the work that otherwise would have to be done by the Postal
Service (for example, sorting the mail by ZIP Code or transporting the mail
to a different postal facility). Everyone benefits from this - mailers save
money on their postal rates and the Postal Service’s costs are reduced.
In order to mail at bulk rates, you need to:
- Get a mailing permit (permission to mail) and pay an annual mailing fee.
- Pay postage using one of several convenient methods: precanceled stamps, postage meter, or permit imprint.
- Make smart choices about the size, shape, and weight of your mailpiece.
- Ensure that your addresses are accurate.
- Presort the mailpieces (separate or sort your mail by ZIP Codes).
- Take your mail to the post office where you hold your mailing permit.
The choices you make can result in significant postage savings.
