5-2.2 Mailing Entered in Washington, D.C., Area

The postage for a 100,000–piece mailing entered in the Washington D.C., area at the Enhanced Carrier Route saturation walk–sequence price is more expensive than the same 100,000–piece Enhanced Carrier Route saturation walk–sequence price mailing entered by the mailer at the SCF level. The savings, however, could be offset by the transportation costs to the SCFs charged by a mail service provider.
