Mailing Discounts

Maverick Print will save you time and money on your mailings. The United States Postal Service (USPS) offers significant discounts to large volume mailings and nonprofit organizations. These discounts apply to basically all types of mail and can reduce postage to as little as 12 cents per piece. By sending your mail through Maverick Print, you can be sure that you will receive the lowest postage rate for your piece and the highest delivery percentage. Let us take your mailing piece from its design through delivery to the appropriate USPS mail facility. Avoid the expense of leasing equipment and hiring extra personnel, stop monitoring postage and storing supplies. Qualifying for Discounts To qualify for presorted mailing discounts, your mailpiece must meet certain guidelines set by the USPS. Generally speaking, your piece must meet size restrictions (length, width, and thickness), weight restrictions, and design/layout restrictions. A helpful tool for designing your mailpiece is the Business Mail 101 portion of the USPS website. Nonprofit Mail As a nonprofit organization, you are entitled to significant mailing discounts. A nonprofit mailpiece is essentially a standard mailpiece with a permit imprint indicia printed onto each piece. To use permit imprint, you set up a postage account (called an "advance deposit account") at the post office where you'll be depositing your mail. When you bring your mailing to the post office the total postage is deducted from your account. It's like having a checking account at the post office. If you're a nonprofit, you probably already have the required permit. Presorting Presorted mail is mail that is sorted by zipcode and printed with a bar code prior to delivery to the United States Postal Service. The USPS gives discounts to companies who presort their mail because presorting removes a step in the USPS mail process. In order to receive these discounts, your mail must be trayed, tagged, sleeved and strapped, but all you need to do is call Maverick Print.
