3. Bring mail pieces to the copy center.
   • Make sure to have your account number for postage with the piece(s) to be metered
4. Pieces will be metered according to size, specs, and postal regulations.
   • Possible pieces to mail include, but are not limited to, postcards, various sized envelopes, certified mail, etc.
5. Each department, office, or college will be charged at the beginning of each month for any postal fees from the previous month.
6. Mail metering turnaround time could be up to 72 hours from dropping off at the copy center and depends on current copy center workload.
