Finding your USPS postal carrier route

If you are like me, you like to know how things are organized. What is my postal carrier's route? How many houses and businesses do they have on it? If someone else says they aren't receiving their mail, is that on my carrier's route as well? Searching for this info should seem simple, but Google guides you towards paid solutions like Melissa -- just like when searching for a weather forecast they'll send you to a commerical provider instead of the NWS. The USPS offers a service called "Every Door Direct Mail". You can deliver to them a stack of advertising mailers and they can deliver them cheaply to individual carrier routes. And so the information about the route is available.

Just visit https://eddm.usps.com/eddm/customer/routeSearch.action and enter your ZIP code

. Carrier routes with demographics, incomes, numbers of business & residents are then clickable on the map. Enjoy!
