Step 3: Select Delivery Routes
Use the USPS mapping tool to select your target neighborhoods and determine quantity. You can target specific zip codes or delivery routes to reach your ideal customers.
Step 4: Bundle & Ship
USPS requires postcards bundled in groups of 50 with bundle slips. We can handle bundling for you, or you can organize your printed pieces and ship directly to your post office.

What Our Customers Say About EDDM Printing
"The pre-designed EDDM templates saved me hours of design work. Your team walked me through the USPS requirements, and everything was explained clearly. Highly recommend for first-time direct mail campaigns."
Understanding Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM) Marketing
Every Door Direct Mail printing reaches customers in specific neighborhoods. You do not need to buy a mailing list. This affordable EDDM printing approach works great for any business targeting local clients.
You don't need to address envelopes to specific names. Instead, postcards are delivered to every mailbox on a route. They are simply addressed to "Local Postal Customer."
What Makes EDDM Different from Targeted Mailing
EDDM reaches everyone in a specific area. You do not need to pick and choose customers. This is perfect for local businesses that want to cover a whole town quickly.
Old mailing lists cost extra money. With EDDM, you only pay for printing and postage. There are no extra fees for lists. This keeps costs low for restaurants and local shops.
