Here are a few guidelines if you’re considering using Personalized Mail:
Canada Post adds a Neighbourhood Mail transportation fee to all campaigns not inducted into the exact depot(s) closest to your delivery neighbourhoods.
In other words, unless you are willing to drive your campaign mail pieces to a specific dropoff depot or depots for larger campaigns, you are covering the cost for Canada Post to distribute your campaign to the appropriate depots for final sorting/delivery.
This transportation fee is often why you will see a published Neighbourhood Mail rate of $0.18 / piece, but the final price is $0.192 when working with a mail house or Canada Post directly.
At PostNow we include the transportation fee in all campaigns automatically.

Why Personalized Mail?
Personalized Mail campaigns are great for customer retention and building loyal relationships with existing customers through one-one-one interactions.
Did you know? 86% of Canadians open the direct mail they receive and more than half make a purchase as a result. The open rate and purchase rate increases when personalized mail is used, which makes PM one of the most effective ways to incite action among an ideal target audience.
You can send as few as 150 pieces for any available direct mail campaign in PostNow.
