Here is a link to the USPS website. Simply click on Find Locations, type in the ZIP Code, and it will list the nearest USPS locations. You may need to refine the search to list only post offices and not everyone who sells stamps.

You do not have to put the # on the envelope. Just the street address, city and zip.
