3-3 Checking Postage Payment and Mail Preparation Accuracy

Check your manifest mailings for proper postage payment and mail preparation and/or sortation according to the terms of your authorization letter or agreement.

3-3.1 To check postage payment accuracy, you may use the Postal Service verification procedures described in chapter 9, or you may develop your own procedures based on this section.

3-3.2 If you prepare mailings subject to sortation requirements, you must check to ensure that the mail is properly sorted. Exhibits 2E and 2F describe a simple method to accomplish this type of verification. Your local Postal Service representative can also supply you with the necessary information and training to do this.
