● Local Mailers - Mailers who request MTE from a Postal Plant Mailers who request at least one pallet (approximately 100 pieces)

worth of stacked trays, tubs, sacks or sleeves, any quantity of plastic pallets, or any quantity of rolling stock from a Postal Plant

● Postal Plants - Plants who receive MTE from an MTESC and provide MTE to their Local Mailers
