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 Ellenville
The EDDM process for Ellenville starts with route selection using the USPS EDDM Online Tool, accessed through the USPS Business Customer Gateway. For Ellenville's 1,640 households spread across an estimated 4 carrier routes in ZIP code 12428, the tool lets us filter by U.S. Census demographics — household income, age distribution, and household size — so your mail reaches the Ellenville neighborhoods most relevant to your business.
For a full-saturation campaign covering all Ellenville carrier routes, you're looking at approximately 1,640 pieces at $0.247/piece (Retail) or $0.214/piece (BMEU entry through the New Paltz facility). That puts the total postage cost between $351 and $405 — before printing and design. A complete all-in EDDM campaign for Ellenville typically runs $558–$689 including design, printing on heavy card stock, and postage. Most Ellenville businesses start with a partial-saturation campaign targeting 2–4 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 Ellenville 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 small 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 Ellenville campaigns, we deliver to the New Paltz Business Mail Entry Unit (BMEU) to take advantage of the lower $0.214/piece BMEU rate vs. the $0.247/piece retail rate — saving $54 on a full-town mailing.
EDDM for Ellenville Industries
Retail shops and boutiques in Ellenville 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 Ellenville retailers, a pre-holiday mailing 2–3 weeks before major shopping periods consistently generates strong ROI.
Healthcare and wellness providers in Ellenville — dentists, chiropractors, physical therapists, optometrists, veterinarians — use EDDM to announce new patient specials, expanded hours, and new services. Medical professionals benefit from EDDM's saturation approach because healthcare decisions are household-level decisions, and reaching every home on the route ensures you're visible to families actively looking for a new provider.
Non-profit organizations, churches, and community groups in Ellenville use EDDM for fundraising appeals, event announcements, membership drives, and community awareness campaigns. EDDM's flat per-piece postage rate makes it the most cost-effective way for Ellenville non-profits to reach every household in the community — far more affordable than purchasing a targeted mailing list for the same geographic area.
Tourism businesses, hotels, B&Bs, and vacation rentals in Ellenville use EDDM in two ways: local mailings to build community relationships and awareness (important for word-of-mouth referrals), and targeted mailings to visitor-source markets promoting seasonal packages. For the local component, EDDM lets Ellenville hospitality businesses reach every household affordably — building the kind of local goodwill that generates referral traffic.
Auto dealers and automotive service businesses in Ellenville use EDDM to promote inventory events, seasonal service specials, and tire/brake campaigns. Automotive businesses benefit from EDDM's broad reach — vehicle ownership is nearly universal in Ulster County communities, making every household on the carrier route a potential customer.
