Stuffing

According to the Swiss Postal Act, private mail service providers are not allowed to carry letters weighing less than 50 g in Switzerland. Nevertheless, as a sender of items weighing less than 50 g, you can benefit from the price advantages Quickmail offers. To do so, make your light mailings heavier, e.g. by including an insert or using thicker, higher-quality paper. By the way, we at Quickmail call this process "stuffing".

Price calculation

  • The base price is determined by the format and weight of your mailings.

  • A weight-dependent surcharge is added, which is calculated to the gram.

  • For Quickmail Standard and Large we grant discounts, the level of which is based on the current turnover discount for addressed letters from other providers.

  • No surcharges are applied to mailings that are not machine-compatible - so-called special mailings.

  • For mailings in residual bundles, a surcharge of CHF 0.11 incl. VAT per piece will be applied. This surcharge is not discounted.

Good to know!

Residual bundles result when the minimum number of mailings per bundle specified by you is not reached for a delivery area. The higher the total delivery quantity and the lower the minimum number of mailings per bundle you have specified, the lower the proportion of mailings in residual bundles. You can find out how high the proportion of mailings in residual bundles is after routing an order in the Extranet on the "Download" page.

Information on invoicing

The price per mailing is calculated including VAT and commercially rounded to whole centime amounts. The discount is then deducted and the total amount is calculated by multiplying by the number of items.
