Key Facts
  • This is a PO Box-only ZIP code serving Majuro, the capital atoll of the Marshall Islands in the South Pacific
  • The post office maintains 106 PO Box records compared to just 4 street delivery records across three named locations
  • One highway contract route handles all street delivery to Ferlerm, Delap Town, and Uliga Town
  • The ZIP code database shows no recorded land or water area measurements for this location
  • Only one building appears in postal records: the Postmaster facility that serves as the mail hub
  • This is classified as a Highway-dominant delivery zone, unusual for a capital city but typical for island territories

Postal Infrastructure on an Atoll

The post office designation as a "Highway Contract" facility tells you something about how mail reaches this remote location. One highway contract route handles the limited street delivery, while PO Boxes handle the vast majority of mail sorting. There's one named building in the postal database: the Postmaster facility itself, which serves as the mail hub for this U.S. territory thousands of miles from the mainland.

Why PO Boxes Dominate

What makes this ZIP unusual isn't just the island location but the delivery infrastructure. With 110 total ZIP+4 records and 106 of them designated for PO Boxes, this is fundamentally a PO Box-dominant system. The three street locations suggest delivery to specific government or commercial sites rather than residential carrier routes. That's typical for remote island territories where concentrated delivery points make more logistical sense than dispersed routes.

Street Name Patterns

Island Settlement Names Minimal Street Infrastructure

The three delivery locations represent distinct settlement areas on the Majuro atoll rather than traditional street addresses. These town names (Delap, Uliga, and Ferlerm) identify specific communities along the narrow island chain, reflecting how Pacific atolls organize space by settlement rather than by grid patterns.
