The September 2009 issue of Publication 75, Mover’s Guide, has been shipped to all Post Office™ facilities. As of September 1, 2009, please recycle all expired versions.
n Your office may be participating in the Mover’s Guide Behind the Counter Program. If so, continue to keep Mover’s Guide copies behind the counter inaccessible to customers without the help of a retail associate. Offices that are currently not participating in this program should expect to receive information and instructions on upcoming participation in this proram on or before August 31, 2009.
n The Mover’s Guide is printed and distributed three times per year — December (for January use), April (for May use), and August (for September use).
n Offices will receive Mover’s Guide copies in one or two shipments. The first shipment arrived in mid-August. The second shipments will arrive 4 to 6 weeks later. Shipments will be sent in quantities of 25, 100, and 300. To find out when your office will receive shipments, check the following website: http://blue.usps.gov/purchase/operations/ops_downloads.htm; click Mover’s Guide (Pub75) Distribution for August 2009.
n It’s important that retail associates give the entire Mover’s Guide to customers. The Mover’s Guide contains instructions on how to fill out PS Form 3575, Change-of-Address Order, and special move-related offers that generate revenue for the Postal Service™.
n Your facility may receive Mover’s Guide copies addressed to other offices. If so, check the labels and forward the Mover’s Guide copies as necessary. Remember to scan delivery confirmations affixed to each box.
n Remember, consumers can visit www.usps.com to change their address online.

The Catalog Address Change & Request Card, which is attached to PS Form 3575, allows movers to let catalogers know their new address.
Note: The Catalog Address Change & Request Card must be detached from PS Form 3575 and the catalog description card and online adoption message. The Catalog Address Change & Request Card and PS Form 3575 should be mailed separately. This is important for change-of-address processing.
