USPS Meter Migration

 

New Meter Requirements from the U.S. Postal Service Meter Migration & Decertification Mandates


 
DWC Mailing Systems wants to provide you with important information about the upcoming decertification and meter replacement deadlines established by the U.S. Postal Service. Please note that USPS decertification involves two distinct mandates (with separate deadlines) regarding all rotary postage meters. The first, known as Phase 3, requires all rotary meters without an automatic shut-off capacity (timeout feature) to be removed from service by December 31, 2006. The second mandate, Phase 4, requires all security enhanced rotary meters be upgraded to digital meters by December 31, 2008.

The purpose of this USPS meter migration enhancement program is to significantly strengthen the security of postal funds for all users and to help build a foundation for the future of "intelligent" mail. Fraudulent acts and misuse of postal funds can be costly to your business, and investigations are time consuming and expensive. All of this can create inefficiencies in postal service and contribute to increased postal rates.

Even if you are using a non-Hasler postage meter at the present time, DWC Mailing Systems representatives are ready to help you determine how best to cost effectively meet your postage needs and satisfy all USPS meter requirements before the deadlines occur.
