What's Included

How the EDDM Process Works in High Falls

The EDDM process for High Falls starts with route selection using the USPS EDDM Online Tool, accessed through the USPS Business Customer Gateway. For High Falls's 240 households spread across an estimated 2 carrier routes in ZIP code 12440, the tool lets us filter by U.S. Census demographics — household income, age distribution, and household size — so your mail reaches the High Falls neighborhoods most relevant to your business.

For a full-saturation campaign covering all High Falls carrier routes, you're looking at approximately 240 pieces at $0.247/piece (Retail) or $0.214/piece (BMEU entry through the New Paltz facility). That puts the total postage cost between $51 and $59 — before printing and design. A complete all-in EDDM campaign for High Falls typically runs $82–$101 including design, printing on heavy card stock, and postage. Most High Falls businesses start with a partial-saturation campaign targeting 2–2 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 High Falls 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 rural 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 High Falls 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 $8 on a full-town mailing.

Restaurants and food service businesses in High Falls use EDDM to promote grand openings, seasonal menus, catering services, and weekly specials. An oversized postcard with appetizing food photography mailed to every household within a 2–3 mile radius of the restaurant generates immediate traffic. For High Falls restaurants, we recommend starting with the 2 carrier routes closest to the business location, then expanding to the full 2 routes once response rates confirm the campaign is working.

Tourism businesses, hotels, B&Bs, and vacation rentals in High Falls 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.
