Why Oklahoma City suits mail to every door
Oklahoma City covers a huge area, and most of it is houses. Two out of three housing units are detached homes, most households own where they live, and the typical home dates from 1982, so repair and replacement work is a constant.
That combination is what EDDM postcards and door hangers do best. We print both, along with business cards, take-out menus, table tents, vinyl banners, yard signs, NCR forms and catalogs, all with buy-one-get-one pricing. Orders cross the Red River by UPS Ground from our Arlington, Texas print hub.

Oklahoma City homes in Census data
The 2020-2024 American Community Survey counts 697,125 Oklahoma City residents in 280,065 households. Homeowners occupy 163,985 of those, or 58.6%.
Two housing facts drive most print plans here:
- Housing type: 206,081 of the city's 306,366 housing units are single-family detached homes, 67.3%. Door hangers and EDDM routes both reach a front door or a household mailbox at nearly every stop.
- Housing age: the median home was built in 1982. Houses past forty years old need new roofs, water heaters, air-conditioning units, windows and foundations, and their owners shop for insurance and refinancing too.
The city reaches into Oklahoma, Canadian, Cleveland and Pottawatomie counties. The business counts below use Oklahoma County, where most of the city's businesses are.
Oklahoma City trades that depend on print
Census County Business Patterns for 2023 gives employer counts for Oklahoma County. These trades make up most of our Oklahoma City orders.
- Home repair: 307 plumbing, heating and air-conditioning contractors and 121 roofing contractors. Postcards to the older neighborhoods before peak season and door hangers around each finished job. See roofing contractors and HVAC companies.
- Insurance: 566 agencies and brokerages, the largest office trade on this list. Quote-request postcards to owner-heavy routes keep an agent's name in front of homeowners at renewal time. See insurance agents.
- Restaurants: 806 full-service and 777 limited-service locations. EDDM menu mailers to the delivery zone and table tents inside. See restaurant printing.
- Real estate and dental: 476 real estate offices and 449 dental offices. Farming postcards, open house signs and new-patient mail. See real estate agents.
- Yard and pest services: 237 landscaping services and 60 pest control companies, plus 181 general auto repair shops for coupon mail. See pest control.
Businesses with no paid employees are not included in these counts. Many Oklahoma City roofers, lawn crews and handymen work alone, so the real number of local competitors is higher.
Running an EDDM campaign in Oklahoma City
Every Door Direct Mail sends one piece to every residential address on the carrier routes you select, with no mailing list to buy. Because the city is spread out, the trick is choosing routes rather than ZIP codes: pick the neighborhoods close to your shop or service area and skip the rest. Mailing fewer routes more often usually beats one huge drop that nobody remembers a month later.
Roofers and HVAC companies often time a drop for the weeks after a major storm or before the first heat wave. Insurance agents and dentists do better with the same routes every month, so the household sees a familiar name each time.
Search your ZIP on the USPS EDDM map to see route counts, then run them through the EDDM cost calculator. The EDDM printing page covers sizes the Postal Service accepts.
