Today’s post is a quick blurb about the new USPS flat standards that are going into effect on March 29th, 2009.
The information was featured in DM News so I’m just going to include what they wrote:
“The US Postal Service has released new address standards for flat-sized mail, set to go into effect on March 29, 2009.
The standards will assist the USPS’ implementation of its Flats Sequencing System (FSS), which will sort flat-sized mail into delivery sequence, reducing carriers’ time spent manually sorting mail.
Mailers will be required to adopt new address placement and formatting requirements for periodicals, Standard Mail, bound printed matter, Media Mail and library mail flat-sized pieces set at automation, presorted or carrier route prices, the USPS aid. The standards also include revisions for automation and presorted First-Class Mail flats.”
We’ll post any updates to these new flat standards as they occur.
