How to Enter a U.S. or Canadian Apartment Address for a FishGoo Parcel

Start with an address that already receives mail

Copy the street name, building number and unit identifier from a recent delivery label or your postal operator’s address lookup. Match the unit exactly, including any letter. Select the destination country before filling the state, province or postal code fields.

For a U.S. apartment

In this fictional example, the street address is 123 EXAMPLE AVE and the apartment is APT 4B. If the form has a second address line for the apartment, enter APT 4B there. If you have a single street-address field, use 123 EXAMPLE AVE APT 4B. Enter your actual city, state and ZIP Code in their own fields. On the finished label, check that the apartment number appears with the delivery address. USPS address elements and unit identifiers

For a Canadian apartment

Canada Post shows a unit number before the street number with a hyphen between them. The same fictional example would read 4B-123 EXAMPLE AVE on one delivery-address line. Enter your municipality, province and postal code in the relevant fields. A Canadian postal code has two groups of three characters, shown with a space between them on the label. If the form has a dedicated unit field, use it and check that the finished address includes the unit once. Canada Post’s addressing instructions

Check the route before submitting the parcel

Compare the saved address with the parcel summary, especially the unit and postal code. If your address is a P.O. box, ask FishGoo whether the exact route accepts it before paying. For example, UPS lists a street-address requirement in its U.S. shipping help. If you spot an error after submitting the parcel, send FishGoo the parcel number and the corrected fields through your account or its official support channel. UPS U.S. shipping help
