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 Wawarsing

The EDDM process for Wawarsing starts with route selection using the USPS EDDM Online Tool, accessed through the USPS Business Customer Gateway. For Wawarsing's 5,120 households spread across an estimated 13 carrier routes in ZIP codes 12428, 12458, 12489, the tool lets us filter by U.S. Census demographics — household income, age distribution, and household size — so your mail reaches the Wawarsing neighborhoods most relevant to your business.

For a full-saturation campaign covering all Wawarsing carrier routes, you're looking at approximately 5,120 pieces at $0.247/piece (Retail) or $0.214/piece (BMEU entry through the New Paltz facility). That puts the total postage cost between $1,096 and $1,265 — before printing and design. A complete all-in EDDM campaign for Wawarsing typically runs $1,741–$2,150 including design, printing on heavy card stock, and postage. Most Wawarsing businesses start with a partial-saturation campaign targeting 7–13 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 Wawarsing 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 Wawarsing 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 $169 on a full-town mailing.

EDDM for Wawarsing Industries

Healthcare and wellness providers in Wawarsing — 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.

Tourism businesses, hotels, B&Bs, and vacation rentals in Wawarsing 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 Wawarsing hospitality businesses reach every household affordably — building the kind of local goodwill that generates referral traffic.

Auto dealers and automotive service businesses in Wawarsing 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.
