Type of Addition: QUESTION 10/17/2017

Overview: QUESTION: I’m trying to work up a bid proposal on the Fox Valley Parks Activity Guide and I’m hoping that you could possibly clear something up for me? I see that Approx. 72,000 pieces are going directly to Door-to-Door Direct in Woodbridge, IL. Can you tell me if they are actually handling the mail prep themselves or do we need to presort prior to arrival? I just don’t want to figure mail prep twice. I do have a call into them but am still awaiting an answer? Please let me know as soon as possible…. ANSWER: 72,000 pieces to Door-to-Door Direct do not need to be sorted in any fashion. We deliver approximately 1,000 to the Post Office in Aurora that are pre-labeled/sorted based on a file we will provide you.
