what3words /// The simplest way to talk about location

I know none of the shipping options use this "yet", but it's catching on quickly.

What Three Words will show your EXACT location down to a three square foot area.

You can edit google map to show the street leading to you and your house I did a few years ago - search for how

We had a package of N95 masks show up at my wife's brother's house who ls a snowbird from Washington state. It was for someone in Casson Hammock. No similarity in name, address etc. Can't figure out how it got there. WE delivered the package but there was no one at home. WHen they get it they'll be scratching their heads I'm sure.

Already asked Post Office if our new address in Villages of Richmond was in their system & it was. We close late Jan. UPS hands off deliveries to USPS sometimes…..ask about that. Good luck.

If you have an account with UPS you can go in and provide directions to you house. I had to do this on all the delivery websites when our house was new

Will run over to UPS and Fedex in Leesburg tomorrow to see if I can make them aware of our existence. Strange.

When we moved here in 2020 our area had changed from Wildwood to zThe Villages with a different Zip code. To find us you had to use Wildwood for the city for over a year. Google was the last gps to get it right.

I live in Hawkins and my google maps address and food delivery still come up as Wildwood with a different zip code from my Villages mailing address and I’ve been here nearly 2 years.

In your delivery instructions tell them the address is new and can only be found using Waze. We are on our second new house and this has helped.

I've been in Monarch Grove for over two years and Google Maps still insists I live in Sumterville. Fortunately, haven't had any packages get lost.

We closed in Richmond 12/1. No issues with UPS or Fed Ex. Once they find you, no issues again. Only one problem where Fed Ex dropped packages on two different times to the same number house but different street. As others have said, this area is new to them. Suspect you will be happy with the service once they do find you.

Wonder if OP will update on resolution seems they never do.

Stopped at Fedex and UPS in Leesburg and gave them directions. They said that should take care of it. We'll see.

Go into to Google Maps and add your house, I had to do it twice here in Deluna before Google approved it. After that I have not had a problem.

It will take awhile for new streets to populate on the maps. You can speed the process along by reporting your street and address on the map apps in your phone. Even that takes a couple weeks, but it is better than waiting months.
You will need to screenshot your location on the map, then take photos of the street signs and your house showing the address.
The last new house we moved into we didn’t realize we could do that and we had to go to the UPS and FEdEx facilities to pick up our packages for months.
