There are several ways to inform the United State Postal Service of your change of address.

You will need to submit this notice at least two weeks from your intended move to the new address. This is because mails are usually received and delivered somewhere within this time.

Usually, you can get the change of address form in the Untied States Postal Services.

You can fill up this change of address form online and submit it right in the website.

The second option is to print the change of address form, fill it up and send it to the US postal services office.

The third option is to call the US postal Services Hotline and provide the change of address information.
