FOLDING & INSERTING

The Neopost SI-92, a high speed document folding and inserting machine, is one of our most used pieces of equipment. The SI-92 allows a wide range of envelope sizes and supports two folding stations that can each fold a single page document. In addition, one of the folding stations can be configured to fold up to four pages of collated material. A third station acts as a feeder for return envelopes, pre-folded flyers, or similar materials. All of these documents are then inserted into an envelope, which is then sealed and ready for processing and postage.
The cost of this service begins with a $17.50 set-up fee and then charges an additional pro-rata amount begining at $7.00 per thousand for simple folding jobs or at $7.50 per thousand if the mail piece is to be folded and inserted into an envelope. If properly prepared, we can fold and/or insert up to four pages simultaneously. The cost per thousand increase by $1.00 for each additional pieces to be folded or inserted.

If you would like your mail piece inserted into an envelope, we ask that the envelopes meet the following criteria.

Suggested Envelope Guidlines - (see diagram)

The envelopes should be smooth, clean, and unwrinkled.
- envelopes stored in areas of high moisture or heat are often warped.
The envelope should be between 3 7/8" and 6 1/4" in height.
The envelope flap should be between 1 1/4" and 2" in height.
The envelope should be between 6 1/2" and 9 1/2" wide.

For further details or questions, please contact the mailroom.

TABS & LABELS

For some bulk mailings, the U.S.P.S. requires that open newsletters, flyers, and similar brochures be taped or tabbed closed. The Neopost TA60 can quickly and efficiently tab these documents. The cost consists of a $17.50 set-up fee and a further $7.00 or $15.00 per thousand, depending on whether one or two tabs are necessary.

DIRECT ADDRESS PRINTING & VERIFICATION

This service requires a database of mailing addresses. Excel is the preferred format; However, we can also use delimited text, fixed length text, Access, as well as Lotus 1-2-3, Paradox and .DBF files. We then take your addresses, verify them for accuracy and postal addressing standards. The addresses are then prepared for first class pre-sort or bulk mailing, depending on your preference. We then print the addresses directly onto the mail itself and include a U.S. postal approved bar-code to ensure greater accuracy and speed of delivery. We can, on request, also provide a database of those addresses that did not verify and the reasons why, so that you may correct your own database to ensure better accuracy on future mailings.
All of this service is provided for an initial set-up fee of $17.50 and a further cost of $7.50 per thousand. If your mail piece does not have the pre-paid postage indicia we can also print this on your mail piece when we print the addresses. The cost for printing the indica is an additional $4.00 per thousand.
