Addressing mail to a po box

When addressing mail to a PO Box, you should follow these guidelines:

1. Use the correct format: The format for addressing mail to a PO Box is as follows:

[Recipient's Name] PO Box [PO Box Number] [City, State ZIP Code]

For example:

John Doe PO Box 123 Anytown, CA 12345

2. Use the correct title: If the recipient has a title (e.g., Mr., Mrs., Ms., Dr.), include it before their name.

3. Use the correct street address: Since the PO Box is not a physical street address, do not include a street address or a route number.

4. Use the correct city and state: Include the city and state where the PO Box is located.

5. Use the correct ZIP Code: Use the ZIP Code associated with the PO Box location.

6. Do not include a comma after the city: Unlike a physical street address, there is no comma after the city when addressing a PO Box.

7. Use a standard font and size: Use a standard font (e.g., Arial, Calibri, or Times New Roman) and a size of at least 10 points to ensure the address is legible.

8. Double-check the PO Box number: Make sure to double-check the PO Box number to ensure it is correct.

Here are some examples of correctly addressed mail to a PO Box:

• John Doe PO Box 123 Anytown, CA 12345
• Jane Smith PO Box 456 Othertown, NY 98765
• Dr. Michael Brown PO Box 789 Thistown, FL 34567

Remember to always check with the recipient or the post office if you're unsure about the correct format or PO Box number.
