Please someone remind me what the exact way is to address a box you are shipping down. I remember block letters black ink and to put "VI" instead of "USVI." BUT, does the "Cruz Bay" go on the PO box line or the ST JOHN VI zip code line?
I need to ship tomorrow so thanks for any help!

Thanks. I think I was given the fedex shipping information which is what was confusing me. No way am I sending via fedex! Back to the property manager I go!

Are you using a Flat Rate box from the USPS? If so, go to USPS.com and create a label and pay for it online. In doing so, the address will be converted to their Standarized Format, and your label will have a barcode. Tracking is free when you do it this way.

Flat rate box? I surely wish! Not even close. I have newbies coming with me this time. And they have stuff. If anyone would like to volunteer to be our sherpa I am considering applications.
