The January 2010 issue of Publication 75, Mover’s Guide, has been shipped to all Post Offices™. As of January 1, 2010, please recycle all expired versions.
Mover’s Guide Schedule Information
n 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 shipments arrived in mid-December. The second shipments will arrive 4 to 6 weeks later. Shipments will be sent in quantities of 25, 100, and 300.
n Your facility may receive Mover’s Guide copies addressed to other offices. Please check the labels and forward the guides as necessary. Remember to scan delivery confirmations affixed to each box.
Behind the Counter Program
n All Post Offices are now participating in the Behind the Counter program. To be in compliance with this program, you must continue to keep Mover’s Guide copies behind the counter so that they are inaccessible to customers without the help of a retail associate.
n Remind customers who request a Mover’s Guide of the convenient opportunity to submit their change-of-address request at www.usps.com. Internet Change of Address (ICOA) transactions provide customers with the most convenient, safe, and secure way to change their address. Furthermore, online requests reduce processing time, improve address accuracy, and generate significant revenue for the Postal Service™.
n Give customers unwilling or unable to submit their change-of-address request at www.usps.com a complete, unopened copy of Mover’s Guide.

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