How Our Direct Mail Pricing Works
Catdi Printing's calculator uses live USPS postage rates, our 4over print partner's wholesale pricing API, and proven industry response benchmarks to give you a complete cost projection — no estimates, no surprises.
EDDM vs. Targeted Direct Mail
EDDM (Every Door Direct Mail) saturates every household on a USPS carrier route at the lowest postage rate of $0.242/piece. It's perfect for restaurants, grocery stores, and any local business reaching a defined neighborhood. Targeted Direct Mail uses a custom mailing list filtered by demographics, income, age, homeownership, or hundreds of other attributes — ideal when you need to reach specific buyers, donors, or political households.
