If you\u2019re mailing postcards with EDDM\u00ae Retail, one of the most important steps is properly filling out your USPS\u00ae facing slips. These slips tell the Post Office exactly where each bundle of postcards is going\u2014and they\u2019re required for every bundle you drop off.<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s a quick breakdown of how to complete a facing slip:<\/p>\n
ZIP Code<\/strong> \u2013 Write the ZIP Code of the delivery area for this bundle.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Route<\/strong> \u2013 Enter the USPS carrier route from your order (example: C009).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Delivery Type<\/strong> \u2013 Choose either Residential<\/em> or Residential\/Business<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n Date<\/strong> \u2013 Add the date you\u2019ll be dropping off your postcards.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Bundle Size<\/strong> \u2013 Write the number of postcards in the bundle (50 or 100 is recommended, but the last bundle may be smaller).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Total Bundles<\/strong> \u2013 Write how many total bundles you prepared for this route, then number them (e.g., Bundle 1 of 5, 2 of 5, etc.).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n Do Not Deliver Address<\/strong> \u2013 Leave this space blank.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Business Name & Post Office<\/strong> \u2013 Add your company name and the Post Office location where you\u2019ll drop off the mail.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n That\u2019s it! Just place a facing slip on top of each rubber-banded bundle. Remember\u2014you need one completed slip for every bundle for every route.<\/p>\n \ud83d\udcec Want to see the process in action?
