Question
Should I mail folded cards in an envelope to protect them?
Answer
Yes. Folded cards and other delicate printed pieces are best mailed inside an envelope rather than as a bare postcard. The envelope shields the surface from the scuffing and marking that happen during mail handling.
- An envelope protects folded pieces from scuffs, creases, and edge wear in transit.
- Bare mailing exposes the printed surface to sorting equipment and rubbing.
- Envelopes also present a cleaner, more finished piece to the recipient.
- For heavier or premium stocks, an envelope is the safer choice for arrival quality.
