Dear Customer,

Canada Post has a strong commitment to provide our customers with reliable and efficient mail delivery. In order to accomplish this, Canada Post relies on its delivery network and addressing system.

As per our addressing guidelines, postal box addresses should contain the following information:

The Addressee (First Line)

 CUSTOMER NAME

Postal Box Number (Middle Line)

 P.O. BOX 1234

Municpality, Province, and Postal Code (Last Line)

 WATFORD, ON   N0M 2S0

If mailers wish to include the Civic Address, it should appear above the second-last line (postal box number and station information).

The Addressee (First Line)

CUSTOMER NAME 

Civic Address 

123 MAIN ST 

Postal Box Number (Middle Line)

PO BOX 1234 

Municipality, Province, and Postal Code (Last Line)

WATFORD, ON   N0M 2S0 

Proper addressing allows our machines to effectively sort, and our delivery agents to effectively deliver, the mail to you. In the case of post office boxes, the postal box number and assigned postal code must be used at all times.

When filling out online addressing forms that require a civic address, you can insert the P.O. Box number on the second address line. If there is only one address line, you may insert it at the end of the address in the civic address field.

Effective immediately, please ensure your mailers are using your correct mailing address including your P.O. Box number and postal code 'N0M 2S0'. This will avoid potential delays in mail reaching you or the possibility of returned mail.

Your cooperation is greatly appreciated. Should you have any additional questions, please don't hesitate to contact Canada Post at:
