Charleston is the largest city in South Carolina, about 160,000 people, with ZIP codes 294 covering the city and Charleston County, at the center of a Lowcountry metro of 850,000 that has grown by a third since 2010. The metro includes Mount Pleasant and Daniel Island, among the fastest-growing and most affluent suburbs in the Southeast; James Island, Johns Island and West Ashley; North Charleston and Park Circle; and Summerville and Goose Creek in Dorchester and Berkeley Counties. The housing is single-family on large carrier routes nearly everywhere outside the peninsula, and new mover volume is high year-round.
Charleston businesses mail newcomers and homeowners in a coastal climate: real estate teams farm Mount Pleasant, Daniel Island and the islands; roofing, air conditioning, pest control, pool and landscaping companies mail homeowners; restaurants saturate the routes nearby; dental, medical and cosmetic practices mail by household; insurance agencies mail before and after hurricane season; and the port, aerospace and automotive employers, the military installations and the hospitality industry mail their communities.
Who mails in Charleston?
Air conditioning, roofing, pest control and termite, pool, landscaping, impact window and generator companies; real estate agents and teams; restaurants and seafood businesses mailing the Lowcountry routes around them; dental, orthodontic, dermatology and med spa practices; insurance agencies; churches, private schools and nonprofits; auto dealers along Savannah Highway and Rivers Avenue; credit unions and services for military families at Joint Base Charleston; and the port, aerospace and automotive employers of the region.
The peninsula, Mount Pleasant and the islands
Downtown and South of Broad are farmed by value from the agents' own lists and mailed by hospitality and retail. Mount Pleasant, Daniel Island, Sullivan's Island and Isle of Palms are the Lowcountry's priciest addresses, and most of the farming happens there. James Island, Johns Island and West Ashley are family suburbs with steady new movers. North Charleston, Park Circle and Goose Creek are dense saturation territory. Summerville in Dorchester County is the affordable growth corridor and mails with Charleston in one campaign.
Hurricane season
Roofers, restoration contractors and adjusters mail the Lowcountry through hurricane season, June through November, and insurance agencies mail before it starts and after it ends. How soon a storm card can mail here depends on the next open date among our three print partners.

Answers
Direct mail in Charleston: questions people ask
How much does direct mail cost in Charleston?
Charleston work is priced per mailing; there's no rate sheet. On the peninsula, Downtown and South of Broad are farmed from a list the agent brings. Off it, nearly everything is single-family on large carrier routes that saturation mail covers without one, from West Ashley and James Island to North Charleston and Summerville, and the count of households on those routes sets the size of the job.
Can you mail Mount Pleasant, Summerville and the islands with Charleston?
Yes. Sullivan's Island, Isle of Palms, Kiawah Island and Mount Pleasant can share a drop with Summerville and Goose Creek; Charleston, Berkeley and Dorchester Counties go out as one Lowcountry mailing.
Can new mover mail reach families arriving at Joint Base Charleston?
Yes, with a new mover list you supply, which picks up military families along with everyone else; the volume here is high year-round. Saturation mail gets there too: James Island, Johns Island and West Ashley take a steady share of arrivals as family suburbs, and so does Summerville.
Does saturation mail make sense in North Charleston and Park Circle?
Yes, if every household on the route is a prospect. In North Charleston, Park Circle and Goose Creek the carrier routes are dense, so a drop reaches plenty of homes without a list. Mount Pleasant, Daniel Island and the islands, with the highest values, are where agents do most of their farming.
