I'm very happy that Endicia is offering Mac support so I'm tempted to try it. Seems like everyone here has glowing praise for the company too.
Before I jump in... do you still have to bring all of your Endicia shipments to the post office or does your mailman pick them up on his route?
I am growing weary of loading and unloading at the Post Office plus the time it takes. Click and Ship doesn't work for Macs so I'm hoping maybe Endicia is the trick? Maybe? Hopefully ?
thanks!

Here's the link where you can request a Carrier to pick-up Priority packages. I do this with the Pay Pal postage so I don't see why you couldn't with Endicia.I don't anything about a mac computer so I don't know if you can use this link but anyway here it is

Our post office said I could call for pickup. I was complaining about having to wait in line for 30 minutes when the postage was already on it. They refuse to take them at the pickup door or let me leave them on the counter if over a pound stating I would have to call the mailman to pick them up and then it would be OK.
And they wonder why they are losing money All they have to do is let metered mail be left at the counter and they would rather pay someone to stop by and pick them up? I understand many post offices do that but here they absolutely refuse.
It took me over a month and lots of "getting to know personally" the postal clerks before they would stop checking every single one of them as I brought them up to the counter.

Does your mailman pick up your Endicia packages?
No, but the milkman has been--which probably explains why my customers aren't getting their goodies.

What does Endicia do for you that makes it differenmt from click & ship or PayPal? I use PayPal for all of my pkgs that I send through the PO. My carrier picks them up right at my door.

Sanmar: For me it is just easier to buy postage in amounts I need rather than each item. Also, it is easy to track through their postage log and to send buyers confirmation numbers if you want or need to.

My postman picks up my packages and I use Endicia every day. It is really great when you get used to using it. I have a really huge mailbox out front and I put my packages in it and they pick them up.

My mailman doesn't pick up packages no matter what. You can sceduale a pickup if it is available where you live. I live in a small town, so I have to take them to the PO.

I don't use Endicia but stamps.com (I know but old dog, new tricks etc) and my mailwoman picks them all up everyday. Sometimes I leave her choc chip cookies and at Christmas I make sure she has some nice crisp greens...if you know what I mean. I am very lucky out here in the country to have super postal service.
