Ducks Unlimited originated in 1937 during the Dust Bowl when drought-plagued waterfowl populations had plunged
to record lows. A small group of sportsmen joined together to form Ducks Unlimited. To date, DU’s volunteers
have raised over $2.5 billion and the organization has conserved more than 12 million acres of habitat—one of the
greatest conservation achievements.
READER PROFILE
Ducks Unlimited was founded by a group of waterfowl hunters over 72 years ago, and today 90% of
DU members are hunters. The community of Ducks Unlimited supporters has spurred a unique lifestyle
that revolves around a passion for waterfowl hunting and other outdoor activities. Ducks Unlimited
celebrates this lifestyle and explores the role of hunters in conservation through its flagship magazine, Ducks
Unlimited. The magazine educates, informs, entertains, and motivates DU members, and promotes
DU’s conservation priorities and achievements. Each issue covers all aspects of waterfowl management,
wetlands conservation, waterfowl hunting, and highlights DU programs, news, and accomplishments.
With an audience of 2.8 million readers, Ducks Unlimited delivers a diverse cross-section of America with
the disposable income to purchase the high-quality products that distinguish their lifestyles—potentially
your best customers.

We require that our packing procedures be adhered to when sending inserts to insure proper handling and
accurate accounting of your supplied materials. We will be responsible only if these requirements are met.
{ PAC KI N G P RO CEDUR ES }
Supplied materials must be packed in lifts, no less than six (6) inches high. (A lift is a stack of material all
turned in the same direction.) The printer prefers to receive lifts as large as can be provided without creating
an unstable load. If two page inserts are received with lifts that are not clearly marked, or which have pieces
turned in different directions within the lift, then upside down or backwards binding of some pieces may result.
Inserts must be packed in such a way that they are received in a flat condition. Cards should be packed so they
do not curl or bend during shipping or storage. All inserts must be trimmed to exactly the same size. Please
strap or band product, only if necessary, to prevent shifting during transit.
Please pack your supplied materials on sturdy 40”x48” skids with a maximum height of 53”. The Bill of Lading
must list the following:
• Total quantity (copies, boxes, pallets)
• Title of insert
• Title of publication
• CSAA’s name-Terri Fabrizio
Multiple supplied inserts should be separated on individual pallets. Each carton and skid must contain the same
information as the Bill of Lading.
