Editing How to Address Envelopes in Care Of



When addressing an envelope "in care of" someone, you are essentially indicating that the letter or package should be delivered to someone at an address where they are temporarily staying or receiving mail. To address an envelope in care of someone, follow these steps:

1. Write the recipient's full name on the first line of the address. 

2. Write "c/o" (which stands for "care of") on the second line, followed by the name of the person who will be receiving the mail. 

3. Write the street address, apartment or unit number (if applicable), and city, state, and ZIP code on the third, fourth, and fifth lines, respectively.

Here's an example of how you might address an envelope in care of someone:

John Doe
c/o Jane Smith
123 Main St
Apt 4B
Anytown, NY 12345

In this example, the letter or package is addressed to John Doe, who is temporarily staying at Jane Smith's address. The mail carrier will deliver the mail to Jane Smith, who will then deliver it to John Doe.
