Presort Bundles on Pallets — Addresses Facing Up

 

Today the Federal Register published our new mailing standards [PDF] | [HTML] requiring mailers to place presort bundles on pallets with the addresses facing up. The new standards are effective September 11, 2008, and will help us validate bundle contents, expedite manual bundle distribution, and take advantage of new flats processing technology.
