presort
Organize mail early
Presort means to sort items before a main sorting process or delivery to another party.
The term appears most often in mailing contexts, where businesses presort mail by ZIP code before delivering it to the postal service, qualifying for reduced postage rates: presorted first-class mail, presort discount.
The practice shifts sorting labor from the postal system to the sender.
