Downers Grove Agencies to Streamline Delivery of Print Publications

Three Downers Grove agencies have announced a new partnership for sharing the delivery cost for their respective print publications.

Beginning this week, the village, Downers Grove Park District and Grade School District 58 will deliver their publications together in order to "reduce costs, improve efficiency and save tax dollars," according to the village website. 

The joint delivery is expected to save a total of $13,000 annually by eliminating higher individual bulk mail costs.

Publications scheduled to be delivered door-to-door Friday, June 28, are: the village's newsletter and water quality report, the park district's newsletter and District 58's Annual Report. Delivery should take two days to complete, officials said. 

Single family residences and stand-alone business locations can expect a single bag containing all publications to be hung on their front door knob. In apartments, condominium complexes, townhomes, and multi-tenant business locations, items may be delivered door-to-door or left in lobbies or with the leasing or property management representatives.

After June 30, residents who feel their location has been missed should contact the village of Downers Grove at newsletters@downers.us or 630-434-2255.
