These large sized postcards should be printed on heavy postcard stock so they don’t feel cheap. Heavy 14 Pt. or extra heavy 16 Pt card stock is recommended. The maximum weight is a generous 3.3 oz. per piece. Cards must be bundled in 50 or 100 flats and delivered to the post office of your choice. The maximum quantity you can send out from each post office is 5,000 pieces per day. You can select as many post offices as you want and mail more.

You can mail catalogs, brochures or anything else as long as it meets the Every Door Direct Mail size and weight requirements. With these mailbox/billboard sized cards, your message will stand out and get noticed. A 6.25 X 11 full color postcard is 300% larger than a standard 4 X 6 postcard and about $ .09 cents cheaper. You can bulk mail to all homes and businesses in a mail carrier’s route. Each zip code has many routes. Individual postal routes vary so pick the ones that best fits your need.
