PAVE Processing
PAVE Processing uses certified bulk mail postal presorting software to CASS standardize and automation presort mailings. This helps you reduce postage costs and avoid the hassle of hand sorting your mail.
The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) offers discounts to mailers who provide their mail sorted according to various postal delivery schemes. The discount varies by class of mail and level of sorting. This is where PAVE Processing comes in.
