General Questions
Can you store all these printed items, Letterheads, brochures, envelopes for me?
Yes we can warehouse and manage your printed stocks.
Is my job too small – what is the minimum?
No job is too small – we run jobs from 100 to 100,000.
I am a registered charity, can I get cheaper postage rates?
Yes – registered charities qualify for further discounted postage rates. The charity registers with Australia Post and receives a Charity Mail (CM) number to be printed on the mail.
How do I know the mail has been delivered?
Regular mail does not include a delivery confirmation, this service is available with the Express Post service but has a much higher cost. We can however, confirm that it has been sent when it is collected each day from our factory in Belmont.
I want to use my own Australia Post account to pay for the postage.
The postage can be lodged and charged directly to your Australia Post account – you will receive a bill from Australia Post for the postage part only.
How big can a letter be?
The Maximum size for a Letter is 260mmx360mm and 500grams. Any bigger than this and Australia Post consider it a Parcel and the pricing gets more expensive.
What about the security of my data files, can they be used by anyone else?
The data is stored and handled in a secure IT environment. No-one else can access your data except Mailing Solutions programming staff. It is securely archived and can be fully destroyed at your request when the job is completed.
What do I have to print on my envelope – other than the receivers address?
Aust Post guidelines state it must have a Return Address and the Postage Paid box – at the minimum.
Am I eligible for Print Post mail?
If you send more than 100 copies at least 2 times per year you are eligible.
How much can I fit in a Small Letter?

Small Letters are the cheapest – sent via Surface Mail makes them even cheaper – Registered Charities get a special price
