Every Door Direct Mail

Every Door Direct Mail Overview

With Every Door Direct Mail® (EDDM) Service from the Postal Service, mailers can reach their customers who matter most to their business. Mailers can simply identify the neighborhoods they want to target and their mailpiece is delivered to every active address in the target area.
