How to Properly Fill Out an Envelope Letter for USPS Mailing
To properly fill out an envelope for mailing through USPS (United States Postal Service(, follow these steps:
1. Write the Recipient's Address (Delivery Address)
Centered on the front of the envelope.
Use this format:
[Recipient’s Name]
[Street Address or P.O. Box]
[City, State ZIP Code]
Example:
John Smith
123 Main St
Los Angeles, CA 90001
2. Write Your Return Address (Sender’s Address)
In the top-left corner of the envelope.
Use the same format as the recipient's address.
This ensures the mail is returned to you if undeliverable.
Example:
Jane Doe
456 Oak Ave
Chicago, IL 60616
3. Place the Stamp
In the upper-right corner of the envelope.
A Forever Stamp covers a standard 1 oz letter.
Now your letter is ready to mail! Drop it in a USPS mailbox or take it to the post office. #usps
