Q: Recently you all provided me a good analysis of our current customers, including their zip codes with route numbers. What would be even more helpful would be to have a map of where the route numbers are located within each zip code. I’ve asked the Post Office for help, but they haven’t been helpful in providing me this. Do you all have any thoughts or ideas of where I could procure such a map of our service area (greater Everett, WA)?           

A: There are a number of sites online where you can purchase carrier route maps. Using Melissadata, you can get free listings of carrier routes by zip code and can also some maps.

On the right hand side of the screen there should be a list of maps available. Select Carrier Routes by Zip Code, and you will be able to see the routes within each Zip Code. This map is printable, as well. You can also select other options from the links on the page to get more information about the area you are targeting. I've attached a couple of screenshots so that you can see what the information will look like.
