What are the price differences between Standard and First-Class Mail?
Standard Mail postage costs will vary by piece. Standard mail forms can be found on the USPS website. When you mail with Vocational Solutions, our software will get you the lowest price possible on every piece. We use CASS-certified barcodes to take advantage of the Post Offices Standard Automation Rates. For example, with Standard Letters (weighing less than 3.3 oz) postage costs generally range between $0.20 and $0.23 per piece, depending on the composition of the mailing. With Standard Flats (weighing less than 3.3 oz), postage costs will generally range between $0.28 and $0.32 per piece. Also, our software will use Enhanced Carrier Routing on pieces that qualify to further reduce your postage costs. First-Class mail weighing less than 1 oz costs $0.39. $0.24 will be charged for each additional ounce. Postcards can be sent at $0.24 per piece. There is different pricing for mail sent by organizations registered with the US Post Office as Non-Profit.
