A "bad address" does not always mean it is undeliverable. The terminology just indicates that the address cannot be included as part of a presorted, postage discounted, First or Standard Class mailing. Often the Zip Code will get a bad address to the proper area, and USPS personnel and letter carriers can find it's real destination.

1. We can remove the bad address from the mailing list.
2. Along with removing the bad address from the mailing list, we can add postage to the offending item to bring it up to full First Class postage and the USPS will then attempt to deliver it.
3. We can have our experienced Data Entry people try and correct each bad address one at a time.
4. Return the data base or bad addresses to you, so you can clean it up and send it back to us fixed.

• The ZIP Code is missing or incorrect.
• Misspelled street name that the USPS software can't decipher. (is Hhnry // should be(sb) Henry)
• Incorrect street range. (is 12345 //sb 2345)
• Improper or missing suffix. The data has Street when it should be Road. If no suffix is given and there is a Court and Avenue in the same Zip Code - the software cannot make a decision.
• The streeet name does not exist in the ZIP Code given.
• The address does not include a required directional as in N. Main St
• The address is lacking an important bit of info - APT, Building, Suite, Unit, etc.
