Start in the USPS route-selection tool, save the delivery counts for the chosen routes, and select a print quantity that covers them. The 100-piece default is a printing configuration, not proof that a 100-piece mailing meets USPS requirements. Confirm the actual mailing before committing to the print run.

Choose routes before choosing quantity
EDDM uses carrier routes rather than a purchased list of individual names and street addresses. Review residential and total delivery counts in the official tool for the audience you intend to cover. You select complete eligible routes. For a named list of particular businesses, use regular postcard printing and arrange addressed mailing instead.
Example plan: a neighborhood pizzeria could use a clear family-meal offer, a readable expiry date and one response instruction on a larger card. Select the routes and count the required pieces before choosing the print quantity. Track redemptions with a campaign code if useful. This illustrates planning; it is not a customer case or a claim about response rates.
Confirm the finished flat and stock
The default finished size is 6.5 x 9 inches. Choose from the sizes actually shown on this EDDM form and use the matching guideline. A standard thin 4 x 6 inch postcard is not an EDDM flat. Size alone does not settle eligibility: thickness, weight, flexibility, shape and the finished mailpiece also matter. Use the official USPS size checker and confirm unusual pieces before printing.
Compare the selected paper, printed sides and coating as one complete specification. Choose the stock for the message and mailing requirements, rather than assuming every premium board is automatically suitable. Square corners are the practical starting choice. This form also offers 0.25 inch rounded corners; do not select that finish for EDDM without confirming that the finished piece meets the applicable USPS standards.
For EDDM Retail, USPS limits each piece to 3.3 ounces. It must exceed 10.5 inches in length, 6.125 inches in height, or 0.25 inches in thickness. Maximum flat dimensions are 15 inches long, 12 inches high and 0.75 inches thick. Flexibility, uniform thickness and other rules also apply. See EDDM Retail eligibility and flat standards before finalizing a nonstandard piece.
Prepare the mail side and indicia
Download the correct mail-side guideline before placing the advertising content. Keep the postal address and indicia areas available. Use the official USPS EDDM indicia for the mailing method, with the correct placement and legibility. The downloadable files on this page help prepare the artwork; they do not replace checking the current USPS requirements.
The EDDM Indicia Option lets you indicate whether the mark is already in your artwork or ask us to add it. Choose the option that describes the actual file. If you ask for the mark, review its presence and placement in the requested proof. A free artwork addition does not include a permit, postage payment, route selection, facing slips or mailing entry.
Separate printing, shipping and postage
The live form and price tables supply current printing prices. Enter the destination ZIP and shipping method for the shipping amount and combined total. Match size, stock, sides, coating, corners, quantity and turnaround when comparing with regular postcards or another supplier. Use the complete current quote for the selected configuration.
Budget for the USPS mailing separately. Check the current USPS EDDM requirements and rates, route count and chosen entry method. A print-and-ship total is not an all-inclusive campaign price. If a mail house will receive the cartons, confirm its address, preparation requirements and schedule before placing the print order.
Choose review and allow time for each stage
Print as is is the default. To approve artwork before production, select the free Human review + digital PDF proof for approval (4 to 8 business hours) option. Check the offer, dates, phone number, QR destination, size and postal areas. Allow for your approval and any corrections. The PDF is an artwork review, not USPS acceptance or a physical stock sample.
The standard production label is 3-5 business days. Confirm available options in the form or compare the express EDDM product. Proof review and approval, production, shipping transit, mailing preparation and USPS delivery are separate stages. Digital Fast ordering remains paused. Air shipping does not shorten the print stage or guarantee when the carrier delivers the campaign.
Prepare the USPS handoff
Check the official route counts and mailing documentation before the cartons arrive. Current USPS instructions call for route-separated bundles of 50 to 100 pieces, with a facing slip showing the count on each bundle. Follow the current instructions for the actual mailing and receiving postal facility.
Arrange postal entry with the correct receiving facility; do not assume any nearby Post Office accepts the selected routes. Keep printing and shipping receipts separate from postage documentation. For an unusual piece, a tight promotion date or a larger permit mailing, confirm the requirements with USPS or the mail house before printing. We supply the printed pieces and ship them; the mailing handoff remains yours to arrange.
| Decision | What to confirm |
|---|---|
| 55printing order | Printing and shipping flats to you or your mail house. |
| Mailing preparation | You or the mail house arrange routes, bundles, slips and postal entry. |
| USPS charges | Postage and any separate postal shipping are outside this print order. |
Buyer questions
Does 100 printed pieces meet the EDDM minimum?
A printing configuration does not establish postal eligibility. USPS lists 200 to 5,000 pieces per day per ZIP for EDDM Retail. Postal exceptions and complete-route requirements still apply; select enough pieces for the actual mailing. Confirm any exception with the receiving postal facility before printing.
Do you print and mail the campaign for me?
This order prints and ships the flats to you or your chosen mail house. It does not include buying postage, choosing routes, preparing the postal bundles or entering the mailing with USPS. Arrange those steps separately.
Can I target only selected businesses?
For particular businesses, use regular postcards and a named-address list. EDDM targets eligible complete routes; review the residential and total counts rather than assuming it offers a business-only filter for a mixed route.
Review the selected specifications, artwork, proof choice, production and shipping total in the form before ordering.
