      A capital city with the valleys on its doorstep

      Cardiff itself holds about a third of the homes in the CF postcode. The rest are in Caerphilly, Pontypridd, Aberdare, Merthyr Tydfil, Bridgend, Barry and Penarth, so a brand with branches across South Wales can plan one campaign across the whole area and choose sectors town by town.

      Inside the city, the mix changes quickly. Cathays and Roath are dominated by students and private renters, Pontcanna and Llandaff by established homeowners, and the newer estates at St Mellons, Pontprennau and the north of the city by young families. Nearly a quarter of Cardiff households now rent privately, which means more people moving in each year and more first time customers to win.

      One in eight Cardiff residents speaks Welsh. A bilingual leaflet is a small touch that many local customers notice, and we deliver bilingual and Welsh language print just the same.

      Where the homes are in CF

      The CF area covers Cardiff, the Vale of Glamorgan and much of the South Wales valleys. Cardiff’s northern suburbs lead the list, with Caerphilly, Barry and Bridgend not far behind.

      Cardiff leaflet distribution questions

      Can I include the valleys in a Cardiff campaign?

      Yes. Pontypridd, Aberdare, Caerphilly and Merthyr Tydfil are all in the CF postcode, so they can be added sector by sector to the same plan.

      How many homes are there in the CF postcode?

      Royal Mail’s October 2026 count shows 470,353 residential addresses across 128 postcode sectors, with around 164,000 in Cardiff itself.

      Can my leaflet be in Welsh and English?

      Yes. We deliver bilingual and Welsh language leaflets in exactly the same way. Just allow for the extra space when you design it.

      Which parts of Cardiff are mainly students?

      Cathays and parts of Roath have the highest share of students. If your offer is not aimed at them, we can leave those sectors out or time drops outside term.

      Can you reach Cardiff Bay apartments?

      Yes, through Royal Mail Door to Door, which delivers to flats and secure blocks with the daily post.

      Is Cardiff busy for leaflets around big events?

      Match days and concerts at the Principality Stadium bring crowds into the centre, but home deliveries carry on as normal. If your offer is linked to an event, we can time the drop for the week before.

      LDM did not disappoint...

      5/5

      From the moment I contacted them I felt at ease and was updated from the beginning to the end of our campaign. Their customer service was outstanding – answered all the questions I had and made everything run as smoothly as possible. Would highly recommend & will most certainly be using them again.

      My account manager was really easy to contact and stayed in touch throughout the entire campaign. They organised our door drop easily and exactly as we wanted. We’ll be using them again in the future.

      Team was fantastic...

      5/5

      I’ve recently used LDM UK for two door drop distributions and Sean and the team were fantastic! Really helpful in scheduling the drops in, selecting areas and keeping me updated on progress. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them or use them again.

      Fast, efficient & helpful...

      Fast, efficient and helpful Service. LDM did a big leaflet drop for us which had instant positive results. Throughout they were friendly and were in regular contact to update me on their progress. I will definitely work with them again.

      Will definitely be returning...

      5/5

      Bit skeptical initially if I would generate any business from flyers but happy with the return. The design of the leaflets and the detail on it were certainly a contributing factor in targeting my specific type of business. I thought that the fact they wear uniforms and are well turned out helped as well It made it more professional in my opinion. Due to my scepticism I did spot check with my clients to ensure they received flyers. Happy to report that they did.

      Super friendly and professional team, they went above and beyond to meet exactly what i wanted with my leaflet campaign. The response I got was phenomenal, and has enabled further growth and opportunities. By far the best distribution company I have dealt with, could not recommend them enough! Looking forward to working with LDM again.

      Great service from Sean and his team during the lockdown. Extremely professional, friendly and helpful. 19k magazines delivered quickly and efficiently under difficult circumstances. Couldn’t ask for more. Thank you!

      Susie Kwok

      LDM have worked tirelessly to meet the high demands...

      5/5

      Craig and the team at LDM have worked tirelessly to meet the high demands I set out for them. I dropped 40k off to be distributed within three days as I was let down by another company, I was reluctant that this could even be achieved! But achieve LDM did. Can’t recommend them enough and the tracking is a great addition. Thank you, see you again in June for the next drop!

      Kieran Thomas

      Absolute 10/10 for LDM!

      Would recommend them without hesitation...

      5/5

      We have used LDM twice now for a leaflet distribution in central Manchester, and would recommend them without hesitation. Not only do they do what they say they are going to do – post the leaflets – they evidence that with strong reporting. They are also super accessible, responsive, and proactive – communicating progress at the right time. Very effective and professional people.
