Custom Postcard Printing That Keeps Your Brand Top of Mind

Postcards remain one of the most direct ways to put a message in front of an audience without competing for attention on a screen. With custom postcard printing from U.S. Press, businesses and nonprofits can create high-quality print pieces that support marketing goals, reinforce brand recognition, and generate real engagement through the mailbox.

With more than four decades of experience behind every order, our postcard printing services support everything from small outreach efforts to nationwide campaigns, all with consistent quality and flexible options.

Printed to Premium Production Standards

Business postcard printing at U.S. Press begins with materials chosen for both appearance and longevity. Postcards are printed in full color on both sides using 12 Pt C2S paper stock, giving each piece a substantial feel that reflects the professionalism of the organization behind it.

A UV coating adds protection while enhancing color vibrancy and contrast, helping artwork and messaging stand out in any setting. From classic 4 x 6 postcard printing to larger formats designed for higher visibility, postcard printing options support layouts that balance creativity with clarity.

Why Businesses Rely on Postcard Printing

Postcards remove unnecessary barriers between a message and its audience. With no envelope to open, offers and information are visible immediately, making postcard printing and mailing an effective choice for outreach across many industries.

Custom postcard printing helps organizations:

Increase brand recognition through repeated visual exposure
Drive traffic to websites, storefronts, and events
Manage marketing costs compared to traditional mail formats
Reduce environmental impact through efficient materials and formats
Avoid email spam filters and digital fatigue
Maintain longer visibility than many other advertising methods

This combination of reach, efficiency, and visibility continues to make postcard printing services a practical part of modern marketing strategies.

Postcard Printing and Mailing Under One Roof

Handling printing and mailing through a single provider simplifies campaign execution. U.S. Press offers postcard printing and mailing services that include list processing, addressing, sorting, bundling, and delivery to USPS. Postage is billed separately based on current postal rates, with access to discounted mailing options depending on format and method.

For campaigns without an existing mailing list, Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM) allows postcards to reach households along specific postal routes without collecting recipient data. This approach works especially well for local outreach and geographic targeting. For more information, read about how EDDM can benefit your business and check out our EDDM Postcards.

Uploading files: You can upload files directly to this product page by clicking "Upload Your File & Order Now". Or, if you prefer to send your files a different way, you can send files here.

If you need any help with creating your print ready artwork, please give us a call at 800-227-7377 or email us at info@uspress.com.

Proofing: After you place your order and upload your artwork, our prepress team will begin inspecting your files to ensure your document size, bleed lines, margins, image resolution, and more are correct in order for the best print quality. They will email you a soft proof (PDF) for your approval prior to printing. Most proofs are sent within 1 business day of order placement; more complex art files can sometimes take longer. Soft proofing is an easy way to see what your finished product will look like and make sure the content is correct. However, soft proofing is not intended for exact color matching. Every monitor displays color differently, and on backlit screens, colors may appear lighter than the actual colors contained in your files. If color matching is critical, please give us a call at 800-227-7377 to order a hard proof.

Production Time: Production time begins after proof approval and is the time required to produce your order before it ships. It is calculated in business days, starting at the next occurrence of 9:00 AM Eastern on the 1st business day after the proof is approved. U.S. Press is closed Saturdays, Sundays and all major holidays; thus, these days are not included in the production schedule.

Shipping Transit Time: Once production is complete, your order will ship out via the shipping method you select at checkout. All of our orders ship from our location in Valdosta, Georgia. The transit map below shows expected transit time from our plant in Valdosta to your location based on FedEx Ground shipping. Alternatively, you can select an expedited shipping method (FedEx Express Saver - 3 business day transit), FedEx 2nd Day Air (2 business day transit), or FedEx Overnight Standard (1 business day transit).

Save time by using our guideline templates. Our templates have been setup with proper bleeds and margins and an optional mail panel, assuring your print job turns out accurate. To download, select an orientation (landscape or portrait) and postcard size.
