Seattle is the largest city in the Pacific Northwest, about 750,000 people, at the center of a metro of 4 million that runs from Everett to Tacoma and across Lake Washington to the Eastside. ZIP codes 981 cover the city and 980 the suburbs of King and Snohomish Counties. The city itself is a mix of single-family neighborhoods (Ballard, West Seattle, Green Lake, Magnolia, the north end) on dense residential routes and apartment districts (Capitol Hill, Belltown, South Lake Union, the University District); the Eastside, from Bellevue through Redmond, Kirkland, Sammamish and Issaquah, is single-family with some of the highest home values in the country.
Seattle businesses mail because the region's households are affluent, home-owning and hard to reach digitally. Real estate agents farm the Eastside and the north end; home services companies (roofing, gutters, moss treatment, windows, heat pumps) mail homeowners in a climate that is hard on houses; restaurants saturate the blocks around them; dental and medical groups mail the suburbs; and the technology and e-commerce companies headquartered here mail customers nationally.
Who mails in Seattle?
Roofing, gutter, siding, window and heat pump companies; landscaping and tree services; real estate agents and teams; restaurants and coffee roasters covering nearby routes; dental, orthodontic and medical practices; private schools and tutoring; the region's universities, hospitals and nonprofits; auto dealers along I-405 and Aurora; and the technology companies that mail customers and businesses nationally from here.
The city and the Eastside
North Seattle, Ballard, West Seattle and Magnolia are dense single-family routes where saturation works and agents farm. Capitol Hill, Belltown and the U District are apartment markets, better reached from a business's own list. Bellevue, Kirkland, Redmond, Sammamish, Issaquah and Mercer Island are farmed by home value and mailed by remodelers and home services companies. Shoreline, Renton, Kent and Federal Way to the south mail as suburbs; Tacoma and Pierce County are a market of their own that mails with Seattle when needed.
Before the rains
Roofing and gutter offers mail in September before the rains, moss treatment in February, landscaping in March, and heat pump and air conditioning offers in May, a growing category as summers warm.

Answers
Direct mail in Seattle: questions people ask
How much does direct mail cost in Seattle?
Seattle mailings are quoted job by job, for the neighborhoods and the work, with nothing published. Which side of Lake Washington you mail moves it most. In the city, single-family routes in Ballard, West Seattle and the north end get saturated; on the Eastside, Bellevue to Issaquah, the mail usually goes to the homeowners on the mailer's own list.
Can you mail Bellevue, Kirkland and Redmond with Seattle?
Yes. The lake is no barrier for the mail: one campaign can take in the city and the whole Eastside, Bellevue, Kirkland and Redmond with Sammamish, Issaquah and Mercer Island. Those suburbs carry some of the highest home values in the country, and agents, remodelers and home services companies all mail them.
Which Seattle neighborhoods are best for saturation mail?
The single-family neighborhoods: Ballard, Green Lake, the north end, West Seattle, Magnolia and the Rainier Valley, plus nearly all of the suburbs. Capitol Hill, Belltown and South Lake Union are apartment districts where a customer list does the job better.
When should a Seattle moss treatment or gutter company mail?
Gutters in September, before the rains, and moss treatment in February. Both follow Seattle's weather, which is hard on houses, and both go to homeowners, either a whole neighborhood of older roofs or the company's past customers. Landscaping mails in March, and heat pump offers go out in May, a growing category as summers warm.
