What's Included

How the EDDM Process Works in Esopus

The EDDM process for Esopus starts with route selection using the USPS EDDM Online Tool, accessed through the USPS Business Customer Gateway. For Esopus's 3,600 households spread across an estimated 9 carrier routes in ZIP codes 12429, 12487, 12561, the tool lets us filter by U.S. Census demographics — household income, age distribution, and household size — so your mail reaches the Esopus neighborhoods most relevant to your business.

For a full-saturation campaign covering all Esopus carrier routes, you're looking at approximately 3,600 pieces at $0.247/piece (Retail) or $0.214/piece (BMEU entry through the New Paltz facility). That puts the total postage cost between $770 and $889 — before printing and design. A complete all-in EDDM campaign for Esopus typically runs $1,224–$1,512 including design, printing on heavy card stock, and postage. Most Esopus 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 Esopus 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 Esopus 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 $119 on a full-town mailing.

EDDM for Esopus Industries

Non-profit organizations, churches, and community groups in Esopus 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 Esopus non-profits to reach every household in the community — far more affordable than purchasing a targeted mailing list for the same geographic area.
