JONESBORO — The United States Postal Service is committed to providing our customers with excellent service. Due to rapid growth in the Jonesboro area, it has become necessary to add another ZIP Code to help us efficiently distribute and deliver mail to our customers. There will be changes to ZIP Code 72401, and a new ZIP Code, 72405, will be implemented to allow the Postal Service to maintain its quality of service and provide our customers with mail delivery that is both prompt and accurate.

The addition of the new ZIP Code in Jonesboro (72405) will become effective July 1, 2019, and affect approximately 6,379 residential and 108 business delivery addresses.

Postal customers affected by this change have been notified by mail. Customers are asked to do the following after the July 1 effective date:

• Utilize the new ZIP Code on all outgoing mail.
• Notify the individuals with whom you regularly correspond with as soon as possible (i.e. family, friends, business, etc.).
• Most mailings have a section where the customer can indicate their corrected or new address; however, “Notification cards for Correspondents and Businesses” will be available at your local Post Office.
• You can continue to use your existing stationery and mailing supplies; but when you reorder, please use the new ZIP Code.
