What's Included

Route Selection via EDDM Online Tool

We use the USPS EDDM Online Tool to select carrier routes in and around your target area. The tool pulls U.S. Census demographics — household income, age, size — so we can target the routes most likely to respond. Cornerstone manages the entire route selection process through our Business Customer Gateway account.

Mail Piece Design & EDDM Retail Indicia

USPS-compliant oversized postcards and flat-size mailers designed for maximum impact. Every piece includes the required EDDM Retail Indicia — the postal marking that replaces a standard stamp or meter mark on EDDM mail. Standard sizes: 6.5"×9", 8.5"×11", 6"×11".

Commercial Printing

High-quality offset and digital printing on heavy card stock. Full color, both sides. Cornerstone is listed in the USPS Printer Directory as a qualified mail piece printer meeting USPS automation and design standards.

PS Form 3587 & Postal Delivery

We complete PS Form 3587 (the EDDM postage statement) for each mailing, prepare facing slips, bundle by route, and deliver to the destination post office or Business Mail Entry Unit (BMEU). Postage: $0.247/piece (Retail) or $0.214/piece (BMEU entry).

How the EDDM Process Works in Crawford

The EDDM process for Crawford starts with route selection using the USPS EDDM Online Tool, accessed through the USPS Business Customer Gateway. For Crawford's 3,760 households spread across an estimated 9 carrier routes in ZIP code 12549, the tool lets us filter by U.S. Census demographics — household income, age distribution, and household size — so your mail reaches the Crawford neighborhoods most relevant to your business.

For a full-saturation campaign covering all Crawford carrier routes, you're looking at approximately 3,760 pieces at $0.247/piece (Retail) or $0.214/piece (BMEU entry through the Newburgh facility). That puts the total postage cost between $805 and $929 — before printing and design. A complete all-in EDDM campaign for Crawford typically runs $1,278–$1,579 including design, printing on heavy card stock, and postage. Most Crawford businesses start with a partial-saturation campaign targeting 5–9 routes closest to their location.

Once routes are selected, we design your mail piece to meet USPS Marketing Mail standards. Every EDDM piece must include the EDDM Retail Indicia — a printed marking in the upper-right corner that replaces traditional postage. For Crawford businesses, we typically recommend the 6.5"×9" oversized postcard — it's large enough to stand out in the mailbox but keeps per-piece printing costs manageable for mid-size market campaigns.

Before delivery, we complete PS Form 3587 — the official USPS postage statement for EDDM mailings. This form documents the number of pieces, carrier routes, and postage due. For Crawford campaigns, we deliver to the Newburgh Business Mail Entry Unit (BMEU) to take advantage of the lower $0.214/piece BMEU rate vs. the $0.247/piece retail rate — saving $124 on a full-town mailing.

EDDM for Crawford Industries

Home service contractors — HVAC, plumbing, electrical, roofing, landscaping, painting — are among the strongest EDDM performers in Crawford. Homeowners in Crawford's approximately 3,760 households need these services regularly, and a well-timed EDDM campaign (spring for landscaping, fall for heating, summer for AC) reaches every potential customer on the carrier route regardless of whether they're actively searching online.

Retail shops and boutiques in Crawford use EDDM to drive foot traffic for sales events, new product arrivals, and holiday promotions. The key advantage of EDDM for retail is saturation — every household on the route receives your postcard, including residents who might not follow your social media or visit your website. For Crawford retailers, a pre-holiday mailing 2–3 weeks before major shopping periods consistently generates strong ROI.

Farms, orchards, wineries, and agricultural businesses in Crawford use EDDM to promote seasonal openings, CSA memberships, harvest festivals, and farm-to-table events. For agricultural tourism businesses, the most effective approach combines local EDDM saturation (building a loyal customer base from surrounding households) with targeted list mailings to visitor-source markets in the NYC metro area. EDDM handles the local component affordably — a full Crawford saturation mailing for a farm business runs under $1,579.
