November 21, 2014, Chandler, AZ—OnTrac introduces DirectPost, a mail product that combines the strength of the United States Postal Service with the regional speed of OnTrac. Shippers now have a faster, more affordable alternative for residential parcel delivery. OnTrac is proud to announce Newegg as the first customer. 

Newegg Inc. the second-largest pure play internet retailer, will be the first company to use DirectPost from OnTrac. Newegg is expected to begin shipping DirectPost shipments during the heavy-volume holiday shipping season.

”We’re excited to add DirectPost to our suite of shipping options just in time for the holiday season,” said Kunal Thakkar, Sr. Vice President of Global Operations for Newegg North America. “OnTrac is a valued Newegg partner with proven reliability, and the new DirectPost mail product helps us provide our customers with the perfect marriage between inexpensive postal rates and faster shipping.”

As a USPS Workshare Partner, OnTrac will inject deliveries straight into DDUs, SCFs and NDCs, giving shippers faster access to customers serviced from over 2,000 postal facilities within its eight-state service area. 

“Service is the primary driver for our postal product,” Director of DirectPost Andy Webber said. “The main selling point for us is faster time in transit. That means DirectPost would offer its customers the Ground service commitment plus one day.” 

The regional hub-and-spoke model employed across the eight state OnTrac service area enables the company to make next-day deliveries at distances of up to 500 miles. By leveraging OnTrac’s territorial advantage, DirectPost combines inexpensive postal rates plus an improved customer experience through faster time in transit. 

The same trucks, same invoices, same pickup times, software, drop boxes and customer service representative make the transition to OnTrac’s mail product seamless. Additionally, the faster transit time of OnTrac Ground plus one day means DirectPost customers will receive their shipments faster.
