Indicias

Good Morning my friends,

Okay we have been completely swamped lately so therefore I am a week or two behind on my blogging. But I am back and want to talk about Indicias today. There are a few regulations when it comes to putting one on your mailing piece or envelopes.

First of all you need to talk to your printer to decide if you will be using their mailing services. If so they will probably put their own Indicia on the mail piece before printing it. But if you already have your own number and Indicia made up just let your printer know.

There are a few different ones depending on how you will mail the printed item.

First Class Mail - Presorted looks like this but of course you would use your own number or the printing company would use theirs: It is 200% of actual size so you can see it better.

The real size is .875 x .875.

Next is the Presorted Standard -Class Mail (This used to be Bulk Rate Mail, but the term bulk could not be used after 2001)

Next and last one we usually use is the Non-Profit Organization Indicia, you must have your own Indicia mailing number for the non-profit company you are with.

So if you have any questions contact your printer or local post office. Thanks and have a great week.
