Mailing Matters: What Move Update Means

The Ancillary Service Endorsement (ASE) method is also utilized by many printers, and refers to the wording added on the front of a mail piece telling the USPS how to handle the mail if deemed undeliverable as addressed at the time of mailing.

The penalties associated with the Move Update can be substantial to your customers' businesses. Non-compliant mail is assessed at $0.07 per piece, applied to the entire mailing for Standard mail and at a single-piece rate for the entire mailing for First Class mail.
