New Mailing Rules effective March 29, 2009.
On March 29, 2009, The USPS is implementing new address placement requirements for "flat" size mail. The reason for these new rules and standards is to ensure faster service and delivery times with the USPS.

The new placement standards apply to all "flat" Periodicals, Standard Mail, and Package Services mailed at presort, carrier route, and automation prices.
They do NOT apply to First-Class Mail!

The first step is to identify what the "top" is:
- Either of the shorter edges on enveloped or polywrapped pieces, and on all Carrier Route (or ECR) Saturation pieces.
- The upper edge when the spine is placed on the right-handed side of an unenclosed piece.

Identify the "top" of the mailpiece: (Will the address be on...)
- Front or back of the mailpiece.
- Either of the shorter edges, or the upper edge with the spine on the right.
- The "top" has nothing to do with the printing on the piece or how it is constructed. Pretend the mailpiece is a blank object.
- Define the "top half". Fold and crease the piece, or measure with a ruler.
- Place the delivery address entirely in the top half. It can be parallel or perpendicular to the top edge, but not upside-down.
- Done with "top"! Now place the postage and return address in relation to delivery address as it is read (postage to the right or upper right, return address to the upper left).

The new standards do not change:
- The existing standards for use of a return address. Best placement is still to the upper left of the delivery address. (refer to publication 177 on the web, click here)
- The existing standards for barcode placement
- The existing four options for indicia placement
