Hurricanes and other catastrophic events can have a tremendous negative impact on mailings. Recently, for two of our clients, trucks filled with their mail were destroyed en route by vicious hurricane winds and rain. But PMG was able to identify the exact sectional centers and addresses affected and immediately provided replacement data and materials.
