Computerized sorts save you money. Postage for Letter Carrier Presorts (LCP) is usually significantly less than postage for manual sorts. The mail is sorted at several levels. The idea is to create bundles that can be given directly to letter carriers, wherever possible.
LCP postage rates tend to decrease further where higher percentages of the addresses are in one or more geographic areas. Larger mailings tend to provide better postage rates because they usually increase volumes into all geographic areas. Therefore, the two key factors for achieving even lower postage rates are concentration and volume.
Computerized postal sort services save you money and allow higher levels of throughput (i.e. the job requires less manual labour).
However, computerized sorts are not always possible.
Sometimes you may provide us with mailing labels that were acquired from an outside source. On rare occasions, we encounter an unusual file format that cannot be converted to one of the many standard formats that we use.
If we are unable to do a computerized sort for you, we can offer you manual sorting services.
