Why can I find a Postal Code for Rural or PO Box addresses when using Find a Postal Code tool?
A. Make sure you have selected the ‘Rural Route (RR) or PO Box’ radio button before entering the address information. If you still cannot find the Postal Code you are looking for, it may be that you are searching for a civic address while there is a different mailing address. The mailing address for rural residents is actually a rural route number and not a street address. It is recommended you specify only the rural route number, city and province and omit street number and street name.
