How we do it

We take professionalism, accuracy, security, and timeliness very seriously.
The Coding Accuracy Support System (CASS) enables the United States Postal Service (USPS) to evaluate the accuracy of software that corrects and matches street addresses. CASS software will correct and standardize addresses, and even add missing address information, such as ZIP codes, cities, and states to ensure the address is complete. CASS software will also verify whether an address is a deliverable address or not, and check against the USPS Locatable Address Conversion System to update addresses that have been renamed or renumbered.
The National Change of Address Linkage system (NCOALINK) is a secured system provided by the USPS to allow addresses to be updated to reflect permanent change-of-address information before mailing. This system references each record against change-of-address requests that have been filed with the USPS, updating it if a match is found.
A correct address saves time, money, and manpower by reducing the volume of 1) non-deliverable mail; 2) unsorted mail; and 3) mail that is deliverable but requires extra effort to determine the proper location to which it should be delivered.
Using NCOA and CASS to check your addresses gets you a discounted postage rate from the USPS. Additionally, this information may be reported and easily utilized to maintain and update your internal records.
Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM) allows mailers to send a piece to every address within a specific carrier route. This is the best option for anyone who wants to target a specific area, but may not have a mailing list. This program also allows for discounted postage rates, making it affordable for small organizations.
Many clients use this option to send:
