Just the Facts




Postal Facts


The Postal Service delivers more mail to more addresses in a larger geographical area than any other post in the world.
This and more facts are in the just-released 2012 edition of Postal Facts.
Postal Facts is an annual compilation about the Postal Service, including information on the role the Postal Service plays in social responsibility and how postal employees make a difference in every community across the country.
Want to know how many homes, businesses and PO Boxes USPS delivers to, or how many new addresses are added to the postal delivery network every year? Check out Postal Facts.
There’s a list of “Fun Facts” including two unusual USPS delivery methods — mule trains in Arizona and a 45-foot contract mail boat that delivers to passing ships in the Detroit River.   
New this year, the publication also has a section on what USPS wants everyone to know to set the record straight about the future of the Postal Service.
Postal Facts showcases the Postal Service’s heritage and encapsulates its mission to connect every American and business through mail delivery.
Postal Facts is available 24/7 on about.usps.com.
