USPS Adding New Zip Code In Bentonville

BENTONVILLE (KFSM) -- The United States Postal Service is adding another ZIP Code in Bentonville to efficiently deliver mail to customers.

The new 72713 ZIP Code will become effective on July 1 and 7,910 residential and 132 business delivery addresses will be affected.

Manager of Post Office Operations for Northwest Arkansas, Jeremy Coffey said they`ve almost used all the plus four number combinations for 72712, so they are adding 72713.

“We`ve talked about it for probably five years. We`ve tried to hold off as long as we could and do other operational changes, but we just can`t do it anymore with the added deliveries that we are seeing and we are expecting,” he said.

The 72712 ZIP Code area will be split and the new 71713 ZIP Code will border the 72712 ZIP Code as follows:

West on SW 14^th St (from the corner of SW I St) Even and Odd remains 72712.

Customers affected by the change will be notified by mail this month.

The postal service asks that all customers using the new 72713 ZIP Code to do the following:

• Use the new zip code on all outgoing mail
• Notify those you regularly correspond with (family, friends, business, etc.)
• You can use existing stationary and mailing supplies, but use new ZIP Code when reordering new supplies
• Most mailings have a section where the customer can indicate their new or corrected address; however, "notification cards for correspondents and business" will be available at your local post office
