Postal presorting

For large mailings, it is worthwhile to pre-sort the addresses. The post office offers postage discounts for mailings grouped by postman. We can sort your mailings in that fashion.

To do that, we use the latest mailman file from the post office. This file contains all Swiss ZIP codes, about 95’000 street names as well as 140’000 mailman districts. Using this data, the addresses are verified, corrected if possible and sorted correctly by mailman district.

Sorting addresses can be used for the following types of mailing:

• Letter mailing
• package mailing

After the sort process, bundle sheets for letter mailings and mail bag flags for package mailings are generated. There are several bundle types taken into account: mailman bundles, P.O. Box bundles, village bundles and remaining bundles (those that don’t belong in the previous categories).

With that, the requirements of the post office are met and you can claim the postage discounts for the pre-sorting efforts.

Additionally, we offer the following new services:

• To sort and bundle periodicals for mailings abroad by the rules of Direct Entry Press to get postage reduction. According to Swiss Post, Direct Entry Press is available up to now for the following countries: Germany, Netherlands, France, Italy and Slovenia.
• Apart from pre-sorting of letter mail, the sorting of parcels has also become part of our services. We are able to pre-sort catalogues (parcels) heavier than 500 gram according to post regulations and prepare them for pallets.
