Marketing & Non-Profit Solutions
Commingling
Marketing and non-profit mail (formerly called Standard Class) is most often used for marketing communications and fundraising appeals, provides the greatest savings for mailers.
Commingling combines marketing and non-profit mail from multiple mail lots, customers, and organizations to maximize postal discounts.
As with first-class mail, CMS offers Barcode Spraying and Reading services and utilizes the latest Full-Service Intelligent Mail® barcode (IMb) technology to ensure higher readability rates on your delivery addresses. In addition to barcoding, CMS can provide mail tracking and reporting services and assist you in meeting the USPS Move Update requirement with ACS reporting or NCOA via front-end data processing.
Drop Shipment and Co-Palletization
Sometimes other methods, like drop shipment or co-pal result in greater postage savings than commingling. Let the postal experts at CMS analyze your project and determine the best fit for you.
Drop Shipment – Mail from one project is trucked via private carrier to USPS SCF and NDC facilities closer to the delivery address.
Co-Palletization – Trays of mail from different mailings are combined into one larger mailing then transported together to USPS SCF and NDC facilities closer to the delivery address.
