CAR-RT SORT is a United States Postal Service marking appearing above the sendee's address on traditional advertising mail such as store circulars, coupon books, and other bound printed matter (BPD). Advertisers receive a significant postage discount in return for delivering stacks of advertising mail to the postal service that are pre-counted to have the correct number of articles for each carrier's route. Thus the name CAR-RT SORT standing for Carrier Route Sort (or Presort).
Famous quotes containing the word sort:
“I don’t pan out on the prophets
An’ free-will, an’ that sort of thing—
But I b’lieve in God an’ the angels,
Ever sence one night last spring.”
—John Milton Hay (1838–1905)
