The key to direct mail success is response, and the key to response if connecting with your recipient. One of the best ways to do that is to personalize your mailpiece with direct messages, even tailoring graphics and content to match your recipient's interests. The more personal you can make your mailpiece, the higher the percentage of attention, opening, reading and responding to your offer. Personalize Your Mailpiece and Get More Response!

Unenveloped letter-size mailpieces prepared for automation rate mailings must be secured (tabbed) to prevent an open edge from jamming high-speed processing equipment. Standards for tabbing are based on basis weight of paper stock used and the location of the folded or bound edge. As an alternative to tabs or wafer seals, the open edge of the length of the mailpiece may be continuously glued or spot glued. Continuous glue or spot glue is permissible with single-sheet self-mailers and cards.
All Needs Computer and Mailing completely automates the tabbing process, SAVING you time and money! Physical standardsNumber and location of tabs or wafer seals are specified for particular types of letter-size mail. In all cases, additional tabs may be used. Tabs, wafer seals, cellophane tape, or permanent glue (continuous or spot) must not interfere with recognition of the barcode, rate marking, postage identification, or required address information. In all cases additional tabs or seals may be used. Cellophane tape is not acceptable within the barcode clear zone. Tabs or wafer seals placed in the barcode clear zone must contain a paper face meeting the standards for background reflectance and, if the barcode is not preprinted by the mailer, the standards for water-based ink. Adequate adhesion is required. Basis weight: the minimum basis weight standards vary, depending on the construction of the mailpiece.
Letter-Size Folded Self-MailersFolded edge (top or bottom) must be parallel to the longest dimension (length) and address of the mailpiece. With one tab or wafer seal: folded edge at bottom of mailpiece, tab or wafer seal in middle of top edge of mailpiece.
The bound edge (spine) must be at the bottom and parallel to the longest dimension (length) and the address of the mailpiece, unless preapproved by the USPS. The mailpiece must be tabbed (secured) in one of two ways:
Minimum basis weight 75 pounds or greater. Double postcards must have folded edge at the bottom. The open edge must be secured with 2 tabs 1 inch from the left/right margin.
Flat-Size Booklet-Type MailpiecesThe contents of the mailpiece prepared in sleeves or other wrappers must be sufficiently secure in the sleeve or wrapper to stay in place during processing. If material bearing the delivery information or barcode for the mailpiece is enclosed in a partial wrapper, that wrapper must be sufficiently secure to prevent the contents from shifting and obscuring the delivery address or barcode.

Package Services is a class of mail primarily intended for merchandise, catalogs, and other printed material. Package Services does not receive expedited service. There are four subclasses of Package Services (see below). Each subclass is best suited for a certain kind of mail, so be sure to pick the one that best suits your mailing. Package Services does not include free forwarding and return, but mailers can use ancillary service endorsements to tell the Postal Service how to treat undeliverable mail.
Unendorsed Package Services, mail that is refused or is otherwise undeliverable will be returned to the sender rated postage due, except for Bound Printed Matter. Unendorsed, undeliverable Bound Printed Matter is disposed of at the local office. You can enhance the service and convenience of Package Services by adding extra services such as insurance and Delivery Confirmation. These services are available for a small fee.

Let’s first understand what polybagging is at its basic foundation.
The traditional definition is a clear plastic or polyethylene bag used to package a number of items together, but especially one used to package small supplementary publications from a newspaper or magazine. We’ve also seen entire magazines poly bagged with accompanying pieces like subscription offers and brochures.
This is the sort of polybagging we are accustomed to and see every day.
Today, we are seeing a shift from traditional polybagging to polybagging that is being used in the direct mail industry as a marketing tool. Imagine receiving a direct mail piece with a clear envelope. Would that peak your interest?
High open ratesProbably the #1 reason you would want to use a polybag is so that you can achieve a high open rate. Experience shows that poly bagged pieces gets opened more frequently and quicker than traditional direct mail pieces. The visibility of the contents not only stimulates interest but makes more of an impact and lasting impression on the recipient. This reason in itself should be convincing enough to use or try polybagging.
Cost efficiencyNot only are you going to get higher open rates, but you can also achieve this at the same costs or in some cases even cheaper than using traditional envelopes. First, polybagging keeps your package light and the postage cost low. The ability to polybag large pieces could save big time vs. having to use large (i.e. 9” x 12”) envelopes which can be quite expensive. As well, not using an envelope means not having to pay for printing and design on the envelope!
VersatilityPolybagging is probably the most versatile housing for your mail piece. Polybagging conforms to the size of your package, rather than the package having to conform to the size of your envelope. The poly can take the shape of any size mail piece, from a small and thin package to a reasonably large and thick package. The poly also makes your piece durable and well protected from water damage and ripping.
