USPS Rate Increases Coming July 2025: What You Need to Know

Another USPS rate increase is on the horizon — and yes, we know what you’re thinking: Didn’t we just have one? You’re not wrong. USPS has announced new postage pricing changes set to take effect on July 13, 2025, and if your business relies on mailers, shipping, or direct mail campaigns, this update matters. 

At Davis Direct, we strive to keep our clients informed of anything that could affect how you do business. So here’s a quick breakdown of what’s changing, and what you should do about it. 

What This Means for You 

These changes might seem small, but over the course of a large or frequent mailing campaign, they add up quickly. Whether you’re a university sending alumni magazines, a contractor mailing invoices, or a boutique running a seasonal catalog campaign, higher rates can impact both your budget and timeline.

We don’t just handle printing; we manage mailing too. That means: 

• Helping you budget for postage before campaigns begin 
• Ensuring your mail meets USPS specifications to avoid additional fees
