Because Non-Profit postage rates are very low (about 1/4 of first-class costs), these mailings require special preparations by the mailer. Pieces must carry complete and correct zip codes so they can be zip-sorted, banded and labeled according to U.S. Postal regulations.
A minimum of 200 pieces or 50 lbs. is necessary to qualify for standard rates and under certain circumstances; non-identical pieces can be combined to meet the minimums.
The Department of Distribution Services needs some lead time for preparation of bulk mailings.
