Facilities designated by the Postal Service to receive drop shipments are often referenced by destination entry prices, such as SCF Los Angeles, CA. Some are referenced by the actual city and state of the facility receiving the drop shipment, such as Waterbury, CT. Others are referred by names used in the DMM labeling lists, such as Quad Cities, IL.
However, based on classification from the Facilities Database (FDB), four types of Postal Service facilities receive drop shipments (see Exhibit 3-1.2). Locations or addresses for these facilities are found in the Facilities page in Facility Access and Shipment Tracking (FAST) or in the Address File from the Drop Shipment Product available under the Resources section of FAST.
