Advantages and disadvantages of postal mail

Postal mail is a very old tool, it was a way of communicating over long distances. With the passage of time and the emergence of new technologies, we have moved from communicating through documents and letters to electronic communication. This form of communication is faster and more efficient.

However, postal mail still has its functions, such as transporting objects, purchases, samples or gifts, on a smaller scale and which close the commercial circle. Postal mail also contributes to the  development of electronic commerce .

Direct mail services has its advantages and disadvantages. Let’s start by mentioning the advantages.

You can send letters by mailbox or through a traditional mail agency : The advantage of traditional mail is that it allows time to schedule shipments.

It allows you to improve your writing skills. Traditional mail is the best way to improve your writing skills : When writing, it is important to think carefully about what you are going to write, structure it in a coherent way and use the correct grammar.

Traditional mail allows letters to be sent at any time : With traditional mail you can send a letter on the day you want and at the time you want.

With traditional mail, electricity is not required : A letter only requires the use of paper and pencil to be written. You only have to invest time in writing it and go to a mailbox or office to send it by mail.

Both original documents and copies can be sent : An advantage over email, through which only electronic copies of a document can be sent.

It allows you to transport packages containing objects heavier than a letter : Also known as parcel delivery by mail. It is a great complement to online stores.

Traditional mail is still a means of communication, legal, banking, commercial and family : It is a universal mail system in which it is possible to send letters, documents and packages to all countries in the world. All that is required is the address, postal code, city and country.

You can buy postage stamps and send your letter directly to the mailbox : There is no need to go to a post office. Snail mail allows more freedom than email.

Direct mail services continues to connect and communicate people around the world : Many people continue to be connected thanks to this means of communication. Traditional mail can reach where the Internet has not been able to reach. Those who use postal mail the most are older people.

The use of traditional mail can be complemented by the Internet : It is the distribution service of all online sales companies. Your purchases are sent by traditional mail.

Among the disadvantages we highlight the following:

Traditional mail takes longer to arrive : With traditional mail there is more control and there are always delays. With the systems that agencies use, it takes several days to classify and send letters. Delays in mail delivery are related to the distance and frequency of delivery to the destination. If a letter is not common, it takes longer to arrive.

With traditional mail, there is a chance that letters will get lost : Generally, all letters arrive at their destination, but some can get lost due to handling. To avoid this, help systems are used to classify letters so that they can be better organized.

Postal mail is more expensive, each letter has its cost and this depends on the weight and the destination to which the correspondence is addressed . Depending on the destination of the mail, the cost will vary. If the destination is far away, its cost will be higher.

In relation to the environment, the use of traditional mail produces greater pollution : Normally, when paper and ink are used, they are then thrown away. In this way, traditional mail produces a lot of garbage. Letters end up in landfills.

Postal mail is always handled manually : This requires a lot of manpower. In this process, the worker reads the destination address and thus classifies the traditional mail into batches to send them to the corresponding destinations.

Unlike email, traditional mail is subject to damage and defects : Traditional mail may arrive in poor condition or may not arrive at all. The chance of mail being lost is low.

With traditional mail you have to go to an office to send it : There are countries where traditional mail is left in streets and parks and is collected by a mailman.

In traditional mail, each letter and document has a shipping cost : When you want to send it, you will need to know the cost of the stamp to pay the freight of the letter. For this, post offices are needed where the exact payments are made based on the weight and destination of the letter or package to be sent.

As we have already seen, postal mail continues to be of some importance, not only for sending letters, but also for sending packages. Among the most important agencies in the world are the US postal services, the Royal Mail of England, the Mexican postal service, and in general the majority of national postal services.

Email and its facilities

Email offers certain advantages over traditional mail. It is more convenient and faster, since when we finish writing the letter or whatever we want to send, we can press the button and it will be sent instantly. In addition, this sending does not have any additional costs, except for having an internet connection. And finally, the volume of data that we can send is also an advantage over traditional postal mail. There is also no need for any kind of intermediary in email, with the delivery being received directly by the recipient.

Future of the postal service

Reports from various postal services around the world show that traditional postal services are losing ground compared to e-mail. However, they reveal that parcel delivery, and especially e-commerce delivery, is gaining importance in this sector compared to the sending of letters.

The parcel delivery sector is where the main innovations and changes are taking place. Customer satisfaction is becoming increasingly important and to achieve this it is important to do a good job in the so-called “last mile”, that is, the last stretch of delivery of the product to the customer; offering a delivery in perfect conditions, on the agreed terms, and ensuring that the customer is satisfied. This is the field where the greatest innovations and improvements have been taking place in recent times.

We take special care of our clients’ deliveries, treating the products with the utmost care and applying the most advanced technologies so that their packages arrive as quickly as possible and in optimal conditions to the final recipient.
