Street numbers are NOT to be used for U.S. mail purposes with VUMC addresses serviced under zip code 37232.
(To see which buildings fall under 37232, click here.)
VUMC's addressing format is older than the USPS' current computerized address
management system and we have discovered that the two cannot be made fully
compatible. By arrangement with the USPS, if no street address is
present, the USPS system will scan only the 37232 zip and route the item to
us. However, if a street address is present, the system may try to match
the address to another zip and it may be misrouted.
However, the street number is appropriate for use in those buildings which receive service directly from
the U.S. Postal Service. In such cases, proper address formatting is to
place the street address line DIRECTLY ABOVE the city/state/zip line. Any
other address information should appear above the street address line.
FOR NON-POSTAL PURPOSES - the street address may be needed in any building for use in directing deliveries by
other carriers such as UPS or Federal Express.
NOTE: The old Medical Center
South & MCS Annex have been demolished.
