Addressing Business Mail

Proper addressing insures timely delivery. To assist us in processing your mail efficiently, please use the information on address formats and placement when addressing your mail found here. 

 You will get the best possible service if you:

• Capitalize everything in the address
• Use two-letter state abbreviations
• Eliminate all punctuation
• Use common abbreviations
• Use ZIP+4 Codes

Make sure the place where you want the mail delivered appears on the line immediately above the city, state and zip code line; ie., 123 MAIN ST STE 400 or PO BOX 125. If both the street address and the PO Box on the same line, the mail piece will be delivered to the PO Box. 

Enclosures

Correspondence

Mail of any kind for transport by USPS should be enclosed in an appropriate envelope or parcel and sealed. The types of enclosures determine the mailing classification. Please remember to include a Postage Memo Slip with outgoing ³ÉÈËAVÊÓƵ mail.

Non-Mailables

Items such as metal pieces, glass parts, product samples, chemicals, etc. cannot be mailed in envelopes. In addition to jamming and/or damaging the mailing machines, these items can also cause serious injury to employees in the mailroom. They require special packaging before mailing or shipping. ³ÉÈËAVÊÓƵ Postal Services will be able to determine the most appropriate handling method.

Shipping Hazardous Materials (HAZMAT)
Hazardous materials are substances that could injure people or cause damage if not handled properly, like chemicals or flammable items. HAZMAT also includes lithium batteries (like the ones in cell phones and electronics). Please contact Postal Services prior to mailing out hazardous Materials.

• Envelopes and cards whose pieces are more than 3 1/2" in height, 5" in length, or.007" in thickness (the thickness of a postcard) are also classified as non-mailables and may be returned to the sender.
• Envelopes with logos or seals covering the "Barcode Clear Zone" will most likely be returned to the sender.

All foreign countries also impose various restrictions depending on the country and item(s) being mailed.

It is recommended that when mailing questionable items to U.S. or foreign destinations, the mailer should call ³ÉÈËAVÊÓƵ Postal Services for assistance at (904) 620-2935.

Window Envelope Enclosures

Enclosures that are designed so the address appears in the window should not be stapled to prevent movement of the address from the window view. If the addressed enclosure does not properly fit within the window, use an envelope without a window.  

Envelopes 

Parcels

A corrugated carton must be used, with old addresses removed. Make sure that the contents are packed with plenty of cushioning. Address information should be typed or machine-printed on an address label and placed in the center of the box. Use a filament-reinforced tape to seal your package (Scotch Tape and Masking Tape are NOT acceptable).

Postal Memo Charge Slips

Postal Charge Memos are required in order for ³ÉÈËAVÊÓƵ Postal Services to process your mail. The form is completed by the mailer and must accompany the mail to ³ÉÈËAVÊÓƵ Postal Services. 

Interdepartmental Mail

Interdepartmental mail consists of regular correspondence being picked up and delivered between on-campus departments. It does not include the pick-up and delivery of heavy books or large packages intended to go from one department to another. Interdepartmental mail is picked up twice a day. Morning pick-ups are delivered in the afternoon, and afternoon pick-ups are delivered on the morning route the next day.

Addressing Interdepartmental Mail Envelopes

These are envelopes used repeatedly for internal mailings. When using interdepartmental envelopes, make sure all previous markings have been clearly marked out to ensure proper handling and direction for the next intended recipient. To provide proper delivery, internal mail requires the full name of the recipient and department. If a department is not included in the address, it will delay delivery.

Some people have used manila envelopes, but they are only good for one-time use. Please remember that the same rules apply: address the recipient and department. Interdepartmental mail envelopes are recyclable. When your envelopes become tattered, your department can order more through your office supply vendor. Slightly used ones can be provided upon request at no cost by calling (904) 620-2935.

Addressing Parcels Properly

Correspondence to students must be separated from U.S. Mail and interdepartmental mail. To ensure your mail is delivered efficiently and in a timely manner, it is best to type the address on your envelope or print out a label. In short, it must be legible.

• Name of student
• Student address, House box number
• Jacksonville, FL 32224-7634

      Example:

     Sally Student

     11800 ³ÉÈËAVÊÓƵ Drive HB#0000

      Jacksonville, FL 32224-7634

Interdepartmental Mail

Interdepartmental mail consists of enveloped correspondence between ³ÉÈËAVÊÓƵ departments. Mail between ³ÉÈËAVÊÓƵ departments should be placed in reusable interdepartmental envelopes, not white envelopes, to reduce the cost of departmental mailing supplies and eliminate the possibility of accidentally applying postage. The interdepartmental mail service does not include the pickup and delivery of any books or large packages from one department to another. Departments must call ³ÉÈËAVÊÓƵ Postal Services at (904) 620-2935 when they have a large amount of mail.

Change of Address

A change of your internal location must be acted upon promptly. As soon as you learn of your new location, be sure to contact your department secretary or office manager so they can update your information in the ³ÉÈËAVÊÓƵ Directory.
