How to Update Address Database for Mailing

Action mail can help you make sure that your mailing address database is up to date and the addresses are deliverable.

National Change of Address (NCOA)

The USPS maintians an National Change of Address (NCOA) database. The NCOA database is update every time someone provides the USPS with information about a change of address. At Action Mail we will run your database against the NCOA database and provide a list of any records that match. We are able to provide updated addresses for people who have moved and submitted a change of address to the USPS. For those who have moved and not submitted a change of address or their change of address is no longer valid, we can provide a list indicating that the address in the database does not match with the current occupant.

CASS Certification

Cass certification is running the mailing address database against the USPS database of addresses. When we run a CASS certification our software will fix any small addressing errors and add a zip plus 4 which will help the USPS better deliver the mail pieces. There may be some records that do not match the USPS database. These records are called non-cassed records. We can provide a list of noncassed records to review and update.

Action Mail will always use NCOA update and CASS certification to help you maintain a deliverable and updated mailing address database, as well as provide you with the tools to up date your mailing databases.
