In 2025, the USPS will remove Bound Printed Matter (BPM) from its market-dominant product list, a change that could significantly disrupt your logistics strategy. If your business relies on BPM for cost-effective delivery of printed materials, you may find yourself facing new challenges. Are you prepared for this shift? 🚚💡
Why This Matters
The removal of BPM means that businesses who rely on it for shipping marketing materials, catalogs, and similar printed content will need to explore new shipping methods to avoid rising costs and delays. This change isn’t just a minor shift—it has the potential to impact your entire logistics operation, from cost structures to delivery timelines.

Whether it’s regulatory changes, natural disasters, or unexpected market shifts, supply chain resilience is no longer just an advantage—it’s a necessity. Disruptions are unpredictable, but what is predictable is that they will happen.
