Envelopes and Mailing Labels
Use City-approved envelopes and mailing labels when sending letters and packages.
Envelopes and mailing labels can be ordered by the box, as well as by the sheet for mailing
labels, from Graphic Services, located on the LG (lower ground) level of the MMOB. E-mail

For Post Office Box addresses, use PO Box XXX, not P.O. Box. The United States Postal
Service prefers that addresses be printed in ALL CAPS with no punctuation:
CITY OF GREENSBORO CITY OF GREENSBORO
PO BOX 3136 300 WEST WASHINGTON ST
GREENSBORO NC 27402-3136 GREENSBORO NC 27401
You can customize your envelopes and mailing labels to include your department name,
division and address:
CITY OF GREENSBORO
PUBLIC AFFAIRS/COMMUNICATIONS
300 WEST WASHINGTON ST
GREENSBORO NC 27401
*Note: Do not exceed four lines.
**Note: When including division name, abbreviate when necessary. Example: Instead of
spelling out Criminal Investigations Division, use the acronym CID.
