Save 33.8 Cents on Each 1-ounce First Class Large Envelope
Your daily, qualifying, 1 ounce First Class large envelopes – Flats – mail can be metered at 54.2 cents instead of 88 cents…if it is properly processed and presorted to USPS standards! These are huge savings for companies who mail several hundred First Class Flats each week.
Access Mail is the only Presort Bureau in the area with the equipment to sort Flats for automation processing by the USPS. We can presort your First Class Flats*, weighing up to 13 ounces each, adhering to US Postal Service requirements, and deliver them for entry into the mailstream – saving you money and time.
Typically, companies must mail at least 500 First Class Flats at a time to use discounted postage. However, Access Mail’s clients can mail under that amount each day and still enjoy all the benefits of presort pricing, because Access Mail is permitted to commingle its clients’ mail to qualify it.
The Postal Service has strict requirements for the preparation of Flats to mail at discounted postage rates*. And they will become more stringent in March 2009 when the Flats Sequencing System (FSS) will automate delivery sequencing that is now being handled manually. This will increase efficiencies by reducing mail carriers’ time sorting mail, allowing carriers to begin delivering earlier in the day.
Access Mail professionals are ready to show you how to take advantage of the significant savings offered by First Class Flats presort. Learn how to properly prepare and meter or permit your mail. Then we will pick it up, complete the processing to assure your mail qualifies for presort postage rates, and deliver it to the Postal Service for you.
