CASS Certification
What is CASS and Why Does It Matter?
CASS stands for Coding Accuracy Support System, a USPS program that verifies the accuracy of mailing addresses. To qualify for automation (discounted) postage rates, address lists must meet CASS standards—meaning every address is checked against the USPS database and includes an 11-digit ZIP code and barcode.
Why does that matter?
The difference between automation and non-automation postage is about 5 cents per piece. So on a 10,000-piece mailing, CASS certification could save you around $500—plus help ensure your mail actually gets where it’s going.
At King Printing, we use the latest CASS-certified software in-house to:
✔️ Verify and correct your address list
✔️ Add ZIP+4 and delivery point barcodes
✔️ Improve delivery accuracy
✔️ Lower your postage costs
We also make sure your list stays up-to-date with USPS rules—certification must be refreshed every 6 months (or every 3 months for carrier route mailings). We’ll keep you covered so your mailings are efficient, cost-effective, and on target.
Database Management
Keeping your mailing list organized and up to date can be challenging. Let us manage and maintain it for you.
We'll store your customer data securely in our database—updating it, weeding out bad addresses, and ensuring its accuracy every time.
Our database management service helps you get the most out of every mailing. We make sure your data is clean, accurate, and handled securely—so your materials reach the right people, at the best possible rate. It also makes it easy to personalize your mailings and target specific audiences based on your goals.
So, before you try to go it alone with your mailings, give us a call. We're here to help.
INKJET and DIGITAL Addressing
Adding a personal touch to your direct mail can make all the difference. A custom greeting or headline—something as simple as using someone’s name—can significantly boost response rates.
That’s where our inkjet or digital addressing systems shine. Once your mailer is printed, we can personalize and address each piece in one smooth step. Pick the font, size, and ink color that best fits your design. We can even add custom headlines or taglines right alongside the address—perfect for reinforcing your message.
Need barcodes or live stamps? We’ve got that covered too. Our system handles it all efficiently and accurately, even on coated or specialty papers made to survive USPS sorting machines.
It’s just one of the many ways our mailing team helps your message stand out and reach the right people.
Let us help you personalize your next campaign.
Inserting
Whether it’s a simple one-page letter or a multi-piece marketing kit with brochures, reply forms, and more—we’ll get it assembled and mailed quickly and accurately.
Our high-speed inserters handle large jobs with ease, and for anything that machines can’t manage, our team is ready to step in with careful, reliable hand insertion.
Let us take the stress out of your next mailing—we’ll handle the details so you don’t have to.

Postage Discounts
Save on Postage—Without the Headache
The USPS offers generous postage discounts for volume mailings and nonprofit organizations—and we’re here to help you take full advantage of them.
When you work with our mailing services team, we’ll make sure your project qualifies for the lowest possible rates and fast, reliable delivery. We don’t just print and hand it off—we manage the entire process, from design to delivery. That means fewer vendors, less confusion, and faster turnarounds.
Why bounce between a designer, a printer, and a mail house when you can do it all in one place?
What You Need to Know:
USPS Discounts
Bulk and nonprofit discounts are available for most business mail—but your piece must meet certain USPS requirements for size, weight, and layout.
Nonprofit Rates
If your organization is a qualified nonprofit, you could save significantly compared to standard postage rates. We’ll help you apply and make sure your mailing qualifies.
Presorting & Barcoding
To qualify for the best rates, your mail needs to be:
✔️ CASS certified
✔️ Barcoded (DPBC)
✔️ Sorted by ZIP code
✔️ Properly trayed, tagged, and strapped
Yes—we do all of that, in-house.

Postal Presorting
Presorting your mail isn’t just smart—it’s a great way to save money on postage and speed up delivery.
Our advanced presort technology organizes your mail by ZIP code—just like the USPS does—making it faster and easier for them to process. That efficiency earns you discounted postage rates on both first-class and standard mail.
Here’s how we help:
✔️ Barcode and presort by 3- and 5-digit ZIP codes
✔️ CASS certification to ensure address accuracy
✔️ Barcode spraying for automation discounts (if needed)
✔️ High-speed sorting and USPS-compliant prep
✔️ Tray, tag, and deliver your mail to USPS for discounted mailing
We use the same level of sorting and recognition technology trusted by the Postal Service, so your mail gets where it’s going—fast, accurate, and cost-effective.
Tab Sealing (Wafer Seals)
Tabs—also known as wafer seals—are a USPS requirement for most self-mailers. They help keep your piece closed during processing and prevent jams in the Postal Service’s high-speed equipment.
Our mailing services team can apply tabs quickly and efficiently as part of our inline process.
✔️ One or two tab seals, applied automatically
✔️ Choose clear plastic, paper, or custom-printed tabs
✔️ Designed to meet USPS standards and match your mailing design
Let us make sure your self-mailer is compliant, professional, and ready to go.

Let us take one more thing off your to-do list. Once we print your mailing, we’ll handle the rest—prepping, sorting, and delivering it straight to the USPS for you.
✔️ No extra trips to the printer or post office
✔️ USPS coordination handled by our experienced team

You focus on your business—we’ll make sure your mail gets where it needs to go.
