Question
How to Choose Between First Class and Standard Rate Mailing?
Answer
The right mail class comes down to two things: how fast your pieces need to arrive and how much you want to spend.
| Class | Choose it when | Trade-off |
|---|---|---|
| Standard Rate | Your project is not time sensitive and you want the lower postage cost. | Longer delivery window, often around two weeks. |
| First Class | Your mail is time sensitive and needs to arrive sooner. | Faster delivery at a higher postage rate. |
- Go with Standard Mail to stretch your budget when timing is flexible.
- Go with First Class when delivery speed matters more than saving on postage.
