But what exactly do we mean by postal automation? And what’s the best way to implement it? It’s true that the advent of sorting machines, cutters, envelope sealers, envelope fillers and [franking machines](https://www.easypost.eu/en/costs-franking-machine) made mail processing more efficient. But you still need staff to operate those machines and put the mail through the whole process. This means your employees are spending less time on other tasks that belong to their core duties. Moreover, that partial automation of your mail delivery costs a lot of money. After all, you are responsible for the purchase and maintenance of all the machines, as well as the purchase of paper, envelopes and ink. ![postal automation](https://images.storychief.com/account_36355/23-018EASYPOSTWEBSITEPOSTVERZENDINGAUTOMATISEREN02_2fd305696d69b6c906cddfa36b530097_800.jpg)## Traditional mail processing versus postal automation: time-consuming and costly To cope with those high costs and loss of valuable time, it’s better to automate your outbound mail by leaving it to [an experienced mail partner](https://www.easypost.eu/en/easypost-classic).
