What is Cleanmail®?
Cleanmail® is an efficient and cost effective way of preparing mail so that addresses can be read by Royal Mail’s sorting machines. And, because you save us time by helping us to sort automatically, you get a discount.
Is there a size limit for Cleanmail® items?
Items can be up to 240 x 165mm (C5) in size
How does Cleanmail® work?
To use Cleanmail®, you must include address details following a particular format. You have two options: Either you print the address using Royal Mail approved OCR fonts, which can be read by our machines that then print a barcode for further sorting; Or you print a barcode yourself. The barcode contains a postcode and delivery point, enabling Royal Mail machines to sort mail to the last stage for delivery. We’ll give you A4 trays and wheeled containers for you to sort and separate items. We’ll collect the containers and completed posting cheques, then use the posting cheque information to calculate the net Cleanmail® cost to you.
What discounts can I get?
If you print addresses in Royal Mail approved fonts, you can save you over 8% on standard mail costs. If you also print barcodes, you can save you over 10% on standard mail costs.
