Why choose Selectapost™?
Many large businesses waste valuable time sorting thousands of internal letters into batches for different office locations. But there is another way. Selectapost™ is all about us taking the initiative and making a start on your incoming mail.
We’ll be doing something we’re perfectly set up for; something we’re good at. We organise everything addressed to your business into meaningful groups and you get to choose whether that’s by department, unit or division. Your mail will arrive clearly marked and ready-sorted into as many as 25 different departments. This means you’re well ahead of the game by the time the morning mail even reaches your door.Good for business
Not only is your post going to be in front of the right people sooner, instead of sorting mail, your staff are free get on with more productive work. Sales, service and fulfilment teams won’t have to wait around for orders or customer responses – and that’s got to be good for business.
How it works
You can sign up to Selectapost™ for a minimum period of one year and renew it on a quarterly or annual basis.
You supply a list of up to 25 different selected categories that you want mail sorted into. These might be particular sections or service streams that you know regularly appear in your business address. With these identifiers, we know exactly how you want your mail separated and we deliver it to you in discrete bags or bundles.
Once you’re up and running with Selectapost™, you can make changes to the number or nature of selected categories – just contact us and tell us what needs to change. -

Can I have more than one PO Box™?
Yes, you can have as many as we are capable of providing at a site. If you want your mail ready sorted when it’s delivered, Selectapost™ enables you to receive mail ready sorted into categories that meet your mail management needs including PO Boxes. However please note that if you purchase multiple PO Boxes®, these will be presented upon delivery as one selection and not sorted down to each PO Box™ number unless you also purchase Selectapost.
