Question
What is the cutoff date to order direct mail postcards for a specific delivery date?
Answer
For direct mail postcards, give yourself a cushion, since the timeline covers production, printing, and carrier mail delivery.
- Place your order 2 to 3 weeks before your target delivery date if it mails Standard, which takes 10 to 15 days in the mail; First Class needs about 10 business days in total.
- Approve your proof promptly, since production starts only after approval.
- The window covers 4 business days of printing, 1 to 4 days of mail processing, and postal transit.
- Contact sales with your exact deadline to confirm the cutoff for your job.
| Target delivery | Place order by | Approve by |

| August 5 | July 15 to 17 | July 18 |
