Why use Web Envelopes?

Faster Mail Delivery! -- The USPS has built huge machines that automatically sort mail at speeds of 100,000 of letters per minute, but they can't read Chicken-scratch, so your letter gets dumped into a pile that gets sorted by hand, and that's slooooooow. Printing the address right on the envelope with the barcode means your letters take the Super-Highway through the USPS, and your letters arrive much faster. Use it for your eBay sales, Christmas presents, legal threats, all of your First Class Mail!

It's Easy and FREE! -- Just type or paste in the address you want to send to. We'll check the format, and make it right! No thinking, no Zip+4 lookups. We automate so you (well, OK, I) can be lazy.

More Karma! -- Ok, I'm not sure the world will give you more Karma if you use Web Envelopes, but faster delivery means happier recipients (unless you are sending eviction notices), which should translate to more Karma of some sort. Heck, it couldn't hurt. Maybe your Postmaster General will give you some Karma too. For more about Karma, watch My Name Is Earl on NBC Thursday nights at 9pm Eastern/1am GMT/UTC. It's a funny, funny show.

Background

I was sick of opening USPS.com to validate, verify and properly format the address I was sending to, then having to open Microsoft Word or OpenOffice Writer to print the envelopes. It got annoying. And I'm all about simple.

So I built this website that allows you validate and verify the address, have it properly formatted to USPS specifications, and be able to print that address PLUS BARCODE right onto your envelopes, right from the web. No software to download. The USPS Barcode helps speed up your mail through USPS mail sorting automation systems, and makes the people who get your mail happier faster (or sadder faster, again see comment about eviction notices). Maybe it will even help you get more Karma!

Have an envelope format you don't see here? Shocker. Email me and I'll try to "Git-R-Done!"
