MAKING YOUR MAIL MOVE SMARTER
Our industry leading addressing technology automatically marks, stamps, and sorts your mailing for the most efficient delivery. We also employ “Intelligent mail barcodes” to enhance ease of handling even further. These services help the Post Office with their processing, resulting in further discounts.
Mailing is a complex industry, with many different categories and price structures. And while having a basic overview is beneficial for considering your options, you need not be overly concerned with what is best for your needs. As a Wicki Mailing customer, you can trust us to help you “sort it all out.”
Marketing Mail Permit Discounts
These discounts can be substantial. The good news is we already have the permit, and as our customer, you automatically get the discounts.
CASS Encoding and Delivery Point Validation
This process double-checks your address list for accuracy and validity. It also automatically adds ZIP+4 and other related info to qualify you for automation rate discounts.
The Coding Accuracy Support System (CASS) is another USPS service we employ effectively for our customers. It lets us evaluate and update key target information within specific ZIP code areas.
We offer tracking of your mail pieces in a timeline to their final destination and arrival date.
500+ pieces or 50 pounds of First Class mail (including cards, letters, flats, parcels) qualify for a reduced rate. Pre-sorted, machinable and automated pieces can also qualify for discounts when prepared properly. Similar discounts apply to Marketing Mail of 200+ pieces or over 50 total pounds. We are experts at assuring that our customers have access to every available discount.

A Good Mailing List is a Great Start
The easier you make it for the Post Office, the easier they make it on your schedule and budget. And it starts with your mailing list. Here are some tips:
- • Keep each address line under 50 characters. Split longer addresses into multiple columns, using secondary address columns when necessary.
- Consistency is key. Always use the same columns for the same type of data.
- Use only standard abbreviations for States, as well as words like Street, Circle, Court, Highway, etc. Otherwise, spell the word out.
Once you have your mailing list in good shape, we can proceed to prep and verify it for discounts at our end. These processes include:
