Asendia USA and the United States Postal Service (USPS) have maintained a close and prosperous relationship for over three decades. Asendia is able to consolidate and sort mail and parcels to USPS's standards enabling us to access their services at reduced rates.
Having done some of the consolidation and sorting work for them, we reduce their processing costs - in turn they offer lower rates to us that we can pass on to you. These discounts can be significant on USPS postage for mail and parcels.
We have solutions for mail and parcels being fulfilled in the USA (at our facility or a third party) and for those coming from other countries.
