A custom printed postcard is a great way to send thank you notes, invitations, direct marketing mail campaigns and showcase your brand.
As an affordable method of marketing, taking the time to send a postcard demonstrates an elevated level of care as opposed to electronic methods. Personalise with your company logo, artwork and message for both prospective and existing customers.
Not limited to the standard sizes of A6 or A5, we can create a postcard to your preferred size and shape. In addition, you can choose from a wide range of papers and finishes dependent on your desired look.
Lead-time for custom printed postcards depends on the number of versions, total quantity, and if you would like a special finish on them. Please try to allow 2-5 days in most cases, but anything outside of this please highlight from the outset and we will do our best to meet your deadlines.
We stock a range of papers for you to choose from, from standard 350gsm to a 450gsm board, single or double sided.
Standard sizes are A6 and A5, but if you would prefer a different size or a folded postcard, this is also available.
Rounded corners are a great way to give a subtle elegant and professional finish to your postcards. They are less likely to bend than sharp corners, keeping them looking fresh for longer.
All of our materials are from sustainable sources, eco friendly and recycled materials are encouraged where possible.
*Same day and express service is available on certain products at an added cost. Please mention this from the outset if required and speak to a member of staff.
We offer a print management service where we can print large volumes, deliver a part supply to you, hold stock on site, and the balance to be delivered on call-off. Get in touch for further information.
To place an order from us enter your details into our online quote form to confirm the finished size, paper weight, finishes, quantity and delivery requirements for your order.
A member of our team will then provide you a quote straight away.

Print that doesn’t cost the earth…
At Wheatley Printers, we don’t just talk about sustainability – we deliver. Here are just a few of the ways we minimise our impact on the world around us:
Technically 30 days, but unless we incur increases on materials it will be longer.
All of our materials are from sustainable sources, eco friendly and recycled materials are encouraged where possible.
Each job is bespoke, we enjoy working closely with you to give you the outcome you are looking for.
No minimum or maximum, we would explain the most cost effective option for you though, for you to decide.
If you order in bulk, you will benefit from a better unit rate.
Some jobs are cheaper when they repeat for certain reasons.
Payment can be made via: Bacs Payment, Card Payment *No American Express* or Cash
This will vary for many reasons, it will be discussed prior to the order taking place.
Every job will be looked at individually and an agreement made from both parties, to ensure the best outcome.
You don’t have to provide finished artwork for us to handle your print work. Our modern, well-equipped design studio – and experienced creative designers – can produce professional artwork for you.
Just get in touch to talk us through what you need.
