Richmond is the capital of Virginia, about 230,000 people in the city, with ZIP codes 232 covering the city and 230 and 231 the surrounding counties, at the center of a metro of 1.3 million that includes Henrico County (the West End, Short Pump, Glen Allen), Chesterfield County (Midlothian, Bon Air, Chester) and Hanover County (Mechanicsville, Ashland). The city's housing is rowhouses and single-family homes on dense residential routes in the Fan, the Museum District, Church Hill and the Near West End; the counties are single-family subdivisions on large routes, with Short Pump and Midlothian as the affluent growth corridors.
Richmond mails through its financial services, insurance and tobacco headquarters, which mail consumers nationally from here; through real estate teams farming the Fan, the West End and Midlothian; through home services companies serving a housing stock from the 1890s to last year; and through the restaurants, dental practices, private schools, churches and nonprofits that mail the region. State government and the universities add their own mail programs.

Answers
Direct mail in Richmond: questions people ask
How much does direct mail cost in Richmond?
Direct mail in Richmond is quoted for the city and the job rather than from a national price list, because how a Richmond list sorts, where the mail is entered and how many pieces you send all move the number. A quote covers printing on a 5×8.25 or 6×11 postcard, mail processing and USPS postage, stated separately. Send the size, the quantity and the ZIP codes or neighborhoods through the quote form and a written Richmond quote comes back, usually within a business hour, at up to 60% less than the big online printers.
Can you mail Henrico and Chesterfield with Richmond?
Yes. Routes and lists across the city and Henrico, Chesterfield, Hanover and Goochland Counties can be included in one mailing and entered together.
Does EDDM work in the Fan and Church Hill?
EDDM in Richmond is quoted for the routes and the quantity you choose, because the cost of an EDDM drop depends on how many carrier routes it covers, how many pieces go to each post office and which 6×11 stock you pick. USPS EDDM Retail postage is the same in Richmond as in every other city. Send the routes or the ZIP codes and the quantity through the quote form and a written Richmond quote comes back, usually within a business hour, at up to 60% less than the big online printers.
