Statewide Classified Advertising Network (SCAN)
SCAN enables you to reach more than 2 million households in the state by placing your classified advertisement through the 
New Jersey Press Association (NJPA) in the more than 125 New Jersey daily and weekly newspapers.

We guarantee your ad will run in at least 90 percent of New Jersey newspapers, except for "work at home" and 900-number ads. The ads run once during the "week of" in the daily newspapers and on the day of publication for the weekly newspapers.

NJPA will process your ad and send it to the participating newspapers. You can submit your ad using our placement form.

The rate is $495 for a 25-word classified advertisement. Each additional word is $13. Phone numbers, including area codes, are counted as only one word. Hyphenated words are counted as two words.

Payment in advance is required. You can use VISA, American Express or MasterCard for ads submitted online or by mail. A certified check or money order also is acceptable for orders place by mail.
