US POSTAL SERVICE
Mailing Services processes all out-going departmental mail for the college, eliminating the need for postage stamps. All mail to be metered should be bundled, with foreign (including Canada) and on top. The Banner index number to be charged should be marked in the upper right corner of the first piece in each bundle.
The Mailing Services in Forest Hall Provides departments with Flat Rate Priority Mail envelopes and Flat Rate Priority Mail boxes.
International USPS: We offer air and surface services, with applicable custom declaration forms for your international shipping needs. Since international mail and shipping changes frequently, please contact us in advance for any information or assistance we can provide.
UNITED PARCEL SERVICE (UPS)
Middlebury College receives a discount from UPS’ published rate and therefore is our primary package and expedited letter carrier. Mailing Service provides departments with envelopes and packs for overnight and 2nd day only. Ground packages must be ship ready.
Faculty and staff of Middlebury College can also send personal packages, between 8:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m., via UPS, at their own expense. Personal packages must be charged to your credit or debit card.
BULK MAIL SERVICES
Bulk mailings are effective means to reach a large audience at an affordable rate. The postage costs are discounted because the sender (Middlebury College) absorbs the labor involved with preparing the mail.
A bulk mailing is one that has a minimum of 200 pieces, all the same weight and size and is available for letters up to 3.4 ounces and flats up to 16 ounces. Within Non-Profit Standard Rate there are two main rates, the presort rate and the automation rate. Both are sorted by zip code, but other preparation, mail piece design, and addressing requirements must be met. You should always try to qualify for the automation rate, which provides the best service and has the lowest postage cost. If you cannot qualify for the automation rate, then you will have to use the presort rate. In this event, your postage and production costs will be higher.
No Bulk mailing will be processed without first submitting a completed REPROGRAPHICS ORDER FORM FOR MAILED ITEMS.
