What is presorting?
Presorting mail is the process of grouping mail by zip code before it enters the USPS network. By sorting mail in advance, businesses help reduce the amount of processing needed at the post office and become eligible for lower postage rates. The more you automated your mail processing, the greater the savings! Mail can be presorted at different levels, including:
5-digit zip code
3-digit zip code
Area Distribution Center (ADC)
Automated mixed zip code trays and bins
How presort mail services work
Traditional presorting often requires your business to do the following:
Print mail documents
Sort mailings by postal requirements
Bundle and tray your mail by zip code
Prepare documents for the post office
Schedule USPS pickups
A presort mail service handles all of these steps for you! With Quadient, simply upload your documents and addresses. Your mailings are printed, inserted, sorted, presorted and entered into the mail stream from our secure production facilities - reducing manual work and ensuring you qualify for postal discounts.
Send mail without touching a piece of paper
Some presort providers can help you lower postage costs, but your business is still responsible for:
Printing invoices, statement and notices
Folding and inserting mail
Managing equipment and supplies
Preparing for mail pickup
Coordinating schedules
Valuable time is still spent preparing mail instead of other work, like connecting with customers or developing new business.

Presort mail FAQs
Presorted mail is mail that has been organized by zip code and destination before entering the mail stream. By performing some of the sorting process in advance, businesses like yours can qualify for lower commercial postage rates and better visibility over your mail once it's in route.
Presorting can significantly reduce postage costs compared to standard First-Class Mail® rates. Depending on your mail volume, mailpiece type and destination, you may be able to qualify for additional USPS discounts.
Traditional presort programs often require minimum mail volumes to qualify. With Quadient, your mail is prepared and sent from our facility using commingling, so you can access presort savings without having to meet the threshold on your own.
Many types of business mail can be presorted, including invoices, bills, statements, notices, postcard, marketing mail, newsletters and other critical customer communications. Both First-Class Mail® and Marketing Mail® can qualify for presort pricing.
Outsourcing presort mail services helps eliminate all of the time-consuming mail prep tasks, such as printing, folding, stuffing, sorting, documenting and handling. So you can reduce operational costs and free staff from manual work while also cutting postage costs. If you prefer to keep your presorting in-house, Quadient can help you make that easier and more cost-effective, too. Just ask!
