How much should I pay someone to address the envelope with return address, mailing address, placing the stamp and stuffing the envelope and also drop in the mailbox?

I provide all the material envelope, letter and stamp.

at least miminum wage rate

if  high volume mail prep service i think their rate is around $100 fee to prep/mail 1000 envelopes at least around here in socal

can depend alot on how addressee list is digitally formatted and such.

if manual i'd imagine it would be closer to $1/envelope

Welcome to BP.

$100 for 1000 mailing is good benchmark.

Hope it helps.

Hi @Ronnie Sparrow  and welcome aboard! Keep it around 10cent per envelope.

That seems awfully low. I was thinking more like .25 cents per envelope. That includes handwriting the return address, mailing address, stuffing the envelope, putting the stamp on it and dropping off at the post office.
