franking machine scale
Unless virtually all of your post is of the same size / weight you really need a scale with your franking machine to fully benefit from franking. Most scales are integrated in to the franker meaning that it can communicate with the meter to enable you to process your large letters and parcels much more effectively. This will also avoid the chance of any costly errors by either overstamping (paying too much for your item) or understamping and getting an extra charge from the Royal Mail.
Depending on the type of scale that you have, it is also possible to shop around for the best rate before you commit to franking your label, this can save your business a fortune if you send a lot of parcels and have not really looked in to this before.
Points to remember:
- What size scale would you need with regard to maximum weight?
- How long does it currently take you to weigh each of your postage items?
- Avoid the chance of either under or over stamping your mail and being charged accordingly.
