About $400 every month or so. Only my inspectors use the mailers. That is how they send work into the three offices. I think the main permit is $500 per year and each location is an extra $200 per year. A stamp would be deducted from the fee. We pay the postage plus a fee. _________________________ The world is not moved only by the mighty shoves of the heroes, but also by the aggregate of the tiny pushes of each honest worker. -Helen Keller

Canada	Originally Posted By: rfm3 so what would happen if one took that envelope, stuck a big blank label over the address and then used it to send to someone else? Would the postage still work? You would need to blank out the entire address including the barcode. If you leave the barcode the mail will go to the original address. The latter would probably be delivered especially if you don't put a return address on it. _________________________ Please do not Private Message with questions that can be answered in a Forum.

jdevlin Carpal Tunnel Registered: 09/09/02 Posts: 7489 Loc: Welland Ont. Canada	We used to get mail into our office regularly when people used the return envelopes and didn't cover the bar code. Now it is processed by third party so we don't see as much of it. _________________________ Please do not Private Message with questions that can be answered in a Forum. I will not respond.

yardmaster Carpal Tunnel Registered: 09/05/02 Posts: 17374 Loc: http://tinyurl.com/PAOpenCarry	In the end...I addressed and stamped another envelope...and stuck their envelope inside with the check...they can reuse the envelope.
