To give you an idea of the kind of work we do, we have a few examples of jobs we have done listed below

Harbor High School’s Newsletter - Mailing:
Harbor High School wanted their quarterly newsletter out quickly and efficiently. We received materials, labels and a sample piece as a guide. Our employees collated seven 81/2 x 11 folded sheets, opening each page before placing one on top of the other. We used sorting trays to ease the process. Employees then folded the piece one time and stapled once. The labels we received were in zip code order, so when our employees labeled the newsletter they had to keep the pieces in order. Then a trained employee would perform a postal sort and prep.

Zip-Sorting (we do this a lot)…
…is putting zip codes with all five numbers the same, zip codes with the first 3 numbers the same together and . Prepping is putting the pieces into a tray, writing the tray tags, strapping the trays and filling out the correct postal sheet. And, with some schools and other accounts we need to call them for their statement sequence number. It is like a purchase order. When it was complete we delivered the mailing to the Post Office that the customer has their account with. The mailing was twelve hundred pieces that took three days to complete.

Ricardo D’Alessandro Cyberincense’s Incense Family Preparation:
Ricardo, friend and staff member; wanted us to prepare a special mailing of incense family packages for him. We received five different wheels of incense, bags and boxes. Our employees inserted one incense stick into a thin bag. We kept the different kinds of incense separate. Then employees collated the five kinds of incense to create a family and inserted them into a larger bag and boxed them up. Ricardo picked up the finished product. This job was on going for one week and totaled two thousand packages.

American Contractor’s CD Mailing:
American Contractor wanted to send an up dated version of their compact disks to go first class. They gave us the materials and the check for postage. Our employees collated the CD and a letter, inserted them into 9 X 6 padded envelope that was self sealing, and metered them first class. Then the envelopes were delivered to the Santa Cruz Post Office. It was three-thousand piece mailing that took three days.

Lockheed Martin Missiles and Space - Preparing Test Wires:
Lockheed needed test wires prepared for them. How we did this job was made simple with tools and materials supplied from Lockheed and our highly motivated and highly skilled employees. Our employee would cut wires at a specific length from a spool using a tool that wrapped the wire around it and was tied and cut. We cut solder bars into pieces and placed them into a soldering bowl to melt. Our employee inserted the ends into the bowl about one and a half inches to clean off the copper. Then another employee would check the wires for length and cleanliness then mount it on cardboard. When finished Lockheed would pick up care of courier Mid

County Delivery.
This job was with us in the late Eighties to the early Nineties. We prepared over ten thousand wires during that time.

U. C. S. C. Campus Mail Service’s Financial Aid - Mailing:
U. C. S. C. Campus Mail Service has been using us for their ever-growing financial aid mailing for many years. They are very well organized for the preparation of this mailing. Envelopes are pre-metered with the correct postage and labels come in order of the mailing sacks for delivery to the Post Office. Our employees collate and insert three pieces (letter, booklet and pamphlet) into a 9 X 12 envelope. Another employee seals the envelope on our sealing machine, and our employees then label the envelopes with bar-coded labels and keep them in order for easy sack preparation. U. C. S. C. usually gives us the labels in chunks of four thousand five hundred labels. We get five chunks at one time and get them to the Santa Cruz Post Office after we check the Postal Sheets for accuracy. The total mailing is twenty two thousand pieces and on the tenth day the last chunk was delivered to the Santa Cruz Post Office.
