Postage discounts

There are many hundreds of ways to post or transport mail - so please do give us a call to discuss the best or most cost effective method for your project. We post many thousands of items a day and specialise in getting the best discounts possible.

You may be surprised about how much discount can be achieved from franking rate for small volumes to paying as little as 14.63p (correct at time of print) for walk sorted mail ... confused then please read on and we may be able to un-scrabble the confusion.

What is mail sorting?

Royal Mail or downstream access suppliers call it work share, we do some of their work and get the discounts for this and pass the discounts on to you. It means that we sort the data, print it and maintain it in an order that makes it easy for the postal carrier to handle - getting you the discount and a faster speed of delivery.

What is the entry level and where do we start?

Large letters and items over 100 grams - you only need 1000 items
Letters - under 100 grams and C5 or DL in size - you need 4000 items
Letters - under 100 grams and C5/DL Cleanmail - you need 1000 items

First, second or third class?

Yes there are three speeds of delivery from next day to a 5-7 day service - the slower the delivery speed the higher the discount. We can however offer downstream access mailing with TNT and you pay third class price for a 2-3 day service - need to know more then, please call.
