  • How do you write an address with an apartment number USPS?

    USPS.com advises that when the apartment number doesn't fit on the street address line, apartment number should be written ABOVE the street information. The USPS prefers including the apartment number on one long street address line, but also suggests the alternative of including an apt line above the street address.
  • What is the correct USPS address format?

    Use the following guidelines:
    Always put the address and the postage on the same side of your mailpiece. On a letter, the address should be parallel to the longest side. All capital letters. No punctuation.
  • Go to the USPS Zip Code Lookup tool at https://tools.usps.com/zip-code-lookup.htm?byaddress. Enter the street address, city, and state in the appropriate fields. Note: The more complete and accurate the address information, the more likely the USPS will be able to validate it. Click “Find.”

Standardized Address Format

for Provider Enrollment In order to improve mail delivery, we have researched the Post Master standards regarding standardized address formats and contents. These standards were jointly developed by the Postal Service and the mailing industry. Standardized address information enhances the processing and delivery of mail, reduces undeliverable- as-addressed mail, and provides mutual cost reduction opportunities through improved efficiency. In addition to the Post Master standards, many DHS systems have requirements and limitations of their own. This document is designed to assist field staff in entering provider address information correctly. First, we will identify some common Postal Service Standards. Second, we will introduce the on-line HZIP system that will assist staff by converting addresses to the standardized address. This will help ensure that our mailings are delivered properly and that our computer systems function correctly.

Some Common Postal Service Standards:

Secondary Address Unit Designators:

Many addresses contain information such as apartment numbers or suite numbers. These are known as "Secondary Address Unit Designators". The Postal Service has standards regarding the content and the positioning of these types of designators. For example, the Secondary Address Unit Designator should be entered next to the Delivery/Street address. If there is not enough room to enter the designator next to the Delivery/Street address, it should be entered above the street address. For example:

APPLE, MARY

STE 123

123456 NW MISSISSIPPI AVE

SALEM, OR 97301

The Postal Service has also defined standard abbreviations that you should use.

Some examples are:

im05025c.doc 2 of 4

APARTMENT APT

BUILDING BLDG

FLOOR FL

SUITE STE

UNIT UNIT

ROOM RM

DEPARTMENT DEPT

Note: if you are using one of the standard abbreviations listed above, you should NOT use the # sign before any numerals. For more information on punctuation and symbols, see the section titled Punctuation. "In Care Of" Information Although it is best for the provider to have mail delivered to their own residence, sometimes we have to accommodate them by having the mail sent elsewhere. If the provider requests that we use an "in care of" address, you should enter that information above the Delivery/Street address. For example:

APPLE, MARY

C/O FRED SMITH

1234 MAPLE DR SE

SALEM, OR 97301

Punctuation Standards

It is very important to limit punctuation and omit unnecessary punctuation. This is due in part to Postal Service standards, and in part to computer systems limitations. Some general rules that you should follow regarding punctuation are: For single field name, there must be a comma after the last name and a space between the comma and the first name. If the provider has two last names or a hyphenated last name, please do not use a hyphen but rather a space between the two last names. With the exception of the comma between the city and the state, the following symbols should generally be permitted in the delivery address block: #, /, -. Spell city names in their entirety. When abbreviations must be used due to labeling constraints, use only the approved 13-character abbreviations. im05025c.doc 3 of 4

For example: Incorrect Correct

APPLE, MARY APPLE, MARY

1234 N.W. MAIN, STE 123 1234 NW MAIN STE 123

PORTLAND, OR 97205 PORTLAND, OR 97205

HZIP - Help for Local Office Staff:

The Postal Service Guidelines, when combined with our systems limitations, make address entry complicated. But, there is help available to local office staff. The mainframe HZIP system conforms with Postal Service requirements for standardization. The system has been available for many years, but many staff are not familiar with it. Local Office staff should verify addresses using HZIP before entering provider address information on mainframe and Oregon ACCESS screens. This will ensure that standardized addresses are being used. HZIP can be accessed by typing HZIP on a blank screen. Staff should fill in the address fields in the top portion of the screen, using the information that they have available regarding the provider address. After this information is entered, staff should press the {enter} key. The Postal Service standardized address will be displayed on the bottom portion of the screen. In the following example, you can see that the address information that was entered in the top portion of the screen did not meet the Postal Service requirements. The bottom portion of the screen displays the standardized address. im05025c.doc 4 of 4
