Mailing Timeline

Most brochures, postcards and newsletters have a standard 4 day production cycle. If PFL is mailing them for you, they will mail on the 5th day (or the day after the end of the production days). The graphic above illustrates what a typical printing and direct mail timeline looks like. Not all orders are created equal and this represents the most common 4 day production cycle and its respective customer delivery date depending on which mail class was chosen. First Class Mail and First Class Pre-sort are delivered in 1 to 4 business days and Bulk Standard Mail takes anywhere from 2 to 11 business days to get to most destinations. You can shorten the overall mail delivery timeline by a day or two by ordering faster turnaround when you place your print order.
