DisclaimerUSPS cannot guarantee that the address shown here is the actual location of the business. Please verify the address before sending your mail. If more than one address matches the information provided, try narrowing your search by entering a street address and, if applicable, a unit number. Edit and search again.

Disclaimer: Please be advised that neither the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania nor the Department of Community and Economic Development (DCED) warrants the accuracy of the information obtained from this site. The geo-coding system used for address searches on this website is outside the control of DCED and is limited to the most current data available in that system. We recommend you contact the county, municipality and/or school district provided as a match for the address you entered to confirm the address fall within their geographic boundaries.


Note:If you do not receive information for the address you have entered in the address search function and you know the municipality and school district for the address you are searching, you may obtain your PSD code from the Political Subdivision (PSD) Codes List.


edit: another thing to note is that CASS will still clean up addresses without finding the correct address in the database. so, Drive = DR, Street = ST, etc, but it might not actually exist. - Check for AS01 or AS02 in the CASS_Results field to see that it has been verified.


It depends upon how easily you want to grab the data. The USPS appears to have a "free" service for lookups. I'd write a macro that performs the lookup. I'd find other solutions potentially more work than just going to the post office and getting their answer.


The terms of use state that the data must be used for shipping. I'm no lawyer, but if you are ever planning on mailing to these addresses, then it sounds reasonable to use the API and create mailable addresses with the ZIP. Read for yourself and see if this helps you. What's your take?


the only problem i've encountered with the API is that it can be slow when trying to certify a large volume of addresses. The CASS tool is threaded and can push through a much as your computer can handle without major limitations. The API will be throttled and have plenty of latency to drive the process into the ground.


I believe CASSing only standardizes the address. Meaning "Street" becomes "St" and that sort of thing. If it can find the address using the zip code, then it will add in delivery point and a bunch of other data points. But if there is no zip, then unless the address is a zip in and of itself (some post offices have their own zip), you're not going to get zips.


Can you provide a small sample of a few addresses? I am able to generate ZIP codes (and even ZIP+4) for addresses missing them entirely - however I know these addresses to be correct before loading them into the CASS tool.


My guess is that CASS is attempting to fix other issues with the address quality first. What are the codes you are getting in the CASS_Results fields? if it references AS01 or AS02 in there then it should be able to generate a ZIP code.


Ah yes - when I try addresses (number, street, city, state) that I too know are 100% accurate, it will return the zip and other fields. For a bunch of our client addresses that must not be accurate, CASS will not return any other data points (error code = Z, "Invalid ZIP/Postal Code"), but the geocoder will.


The first thing I noticed was my city field was full of fluff, so CASS couldn't match that. I'm simply going to update that field with the actual city names (I bizarrely have codes in there) and see where that gets me.


A street address is significantly more specific than a zip code. If a match is solely based on a zip code, it's just a point at the centroid of or randomly placed within the zip boundary. Your question doesn't specify if you are referring to address and zip code as elements of a locator, a particular locator (or style), or parts of a composite locator.


Matches are going to depend on the format and quality of the data. If you have street addresses with no zip, they can be matched by address but not by zip. The reverse is also true. It's important to understand that (depending on the locator being used) a match isn't determined by any one part of the address, but the combination of available parts that most closely matches the locator records.


Not sure of your congressional district or who your member is? This service will assist you by matching your ZIP code to your congressional district, with links to your member's website and contact page.


There is no central listing of member office public e-mail addresses. Each member of Congress establishes their office's policy related to the processing and management of e-mail. Generally, if a member has a public e-mail address, it can be found on the member's website. The office may list a public e-mail address or provide a form directly on the member's website. The U.S. House of Representatives does not provide a listing of public e-mail addresses for the elected Representatives.


The Find Your Representative service matches the ZIP code information you provide with a list of congressional districts. If you receive an error due to a missing ZIP code or incorrect member information, please use the Contact Webmaster form to report the problem. Select the appropriate error category (Report an error in the Find Your Representative service.) and provide as much information as possible to assist us in researching the problem. Please be sure to include: Your Street Address, City, State and ZIP code, the member or congressional district information you are trying to reach and the member or congressional district the service is reporting that you feel is in error.


No. The webmaster will not forward messages to congressional offices. If you are having problems contacting your representative, you can report the problem using the Contact Webmaster form, write or call your elected representative, or visit the member's website for alternate contact information.


If you know who your representative is but you are unable to contact them using their contact form, the Clerk of the House maintains addresses and phone numbers of all House members and Committees, or you may call (202) 224-3121 for the U.S. House switchboard operator. In addition, you may choose to visit your member's website directly for further information.


The Find Your Representative service is provided as a public resource for identifying and contacting a constituent's elected representative. There is currently no restriction on a link being posted to the Find Your Representative page at -your-representative to facilitate constituents in expressing their concerns and issues to their representative in Congress.

I've been buying and selling on ebay for 22 years & recently decided to start selling some of my Yeezy sneaker collection. I hadn't sold any sneakers since the new authentication process was implemented. Today I sold 3 pair. Since I've ALWAYS ended up getting screwed on shipping costs...I just charged a flat $20 fee(which still wasn't enuff ). So I did not print a shipping slip. I wrote down the address where it said "Shipping Address" & took them to UPS


Is this going to mess up the process? The agent I talked to via messages dosent seem to think so. But I'm not so sure. There is even a reminder under the address to make sure to copy everything that is included on the street line


To be 100% honest I've been pretty confused since I shipped. First I was wondering who's address I actually sent packages to? Buyer or authenticator? Thanks to this section I learned 2 went to Astoria NY(at first I thought buyer was using separate handles for the same address) the other to Las Vegas.


Did you print a packing slip with the item number, your seller ID and the buyer's ID on it? If you included a packing slip, then it's possible that they may be able to look it up by the item number, and figure it out, but that's not the standard process.


If you have already shipped the packages, then you should probably try to recall the packages and get the shipper to return them back to you so you can put the code on the label, then send them again.


after talking to ebay on the phone person to person they told me that when the sneakers arrived to to authentication facility...they'd be returned to me...after hearing that & the above answer I pretty much figured that was what would happen. So i contacted the buyers & told them my mistake & that delivery would be longer than it should be due to my stupid error. I offered a refund as well. To which all 3 declined. They were all very cool about it


I sold 14 more pair of Yeezy's, printed the shipping info & shipped correctly after these first 3 blunders...so I think what may have helped them figure out where they needed to go? Maybe they logged in to my account & could trace it there? Whatever they did I'm just relieved it worked out


I will say this...For someone like me that was used to the older way ebay selling worked...there is a new learning curve now that ebay has the authentication model & no longer uses paypal. Luckily for me it has worked out...


there is a link in the "contact us" area that eventually asks you if you would like ebay to call you back(both times it said they'd call within "6 minutes" & both times they did get back to me within that time...I don't know if that's a standard amount of time? or I got lucky? or it depends on what time & day you call?)


i think you're fine...if you printed the shipping label from ebay. In my case I hand wrote the 1st two tags w/o the code...but they actually got to the buyer(i was initially told that would happen...then the 2nd time i talked to ebay they said authenticator would need to return them to me & i'd need to reship...which made sense. However somehow they figured it out & the sneakers got to all 3 buyers...pretty quickly too)
