Encoding
Each and every package and piece of mail that we handle is checked, with the address verified against the USPS address book, the most comprehensive directory available. We correct the ZIP Code if needed, and then place a USPS-compliant indicia on the piece. The indicia contains an 11-digit barcode corresponding to that correct address, enabling the mail to be sorted right down to carrier's route.
Security
The floor plan of each Mail Terminal is designed to maximize security. Our state-of-the-art technology ensures the safety of your packages while in our care. All functions — every step your mail pieces take — are monitored in our clean, highly-controlled environment.
Automation
DHL Global Mail's unique hands-free processing capabilities speeds your mail pieces through our facilities and ensures its accurate delivery — the first time. You save on re-stocking and re-delivery. And to ensure our system is working for you, we spend over $1 million every year on performance monitoring and web-based reporting. In addition, DHL Global Mail and USPS representatives meet on a daily basis to review operations and performance, keeping our partnership smoothly running.
Network
All Mail Terminals are connected via our Nationwide Network, and strategically located near high-volume cities. Once processed, your mail is inserted deep into the USPS mailstream, skipping many steps along the way. This streamlined delivery model achieves volume discounts in every city we serve, by air or by ground, because we commingle mail from other processing centers, to meet the high volume requirements of the USPS.
