You can reap momentous savings on postage … as long as you follow the rules. Bresser’s Information Services understands them completely, and is ready to help.

Remember, nothing that requires sending via First Class Mail^® qualifies for non-profit rates. The rules are strict. Unbendable. Don’t even try.

So, what can you send at non-profit rates? Self-mailers, letters, newsletters and booklets weighing less than 16 ounces can classify for USPS Marketing Mail^®.

Only materials of authorized organizations, registered as non-profits with USPS, can be mailed at non-profit rates. Stated otherwise, don’t try to utilize the non-profit status of another Wauwatosa organization. It won’t work. Authorized organizations are prohibited from sharing their mailing privilege. Obtain your own.
