Seamlessly Distinguish Commercial from Residential Addresses with Deftship's Address Verification Tool

Imagine being a small business owner excitedly shipping a package to a valued customer, only to receive a notification days later that the package couldn't be delivered due to an incorrect address. The frustration sets in, along with the burden of return fees. Shipping mishaps like these can be a headache, but fear not! Deftship is here to save the day with our newly updated Address Verification Tool. In this blog post, we will walk you through the steps of using this powerful tool and demonstrate how it can streamline your shipping process.

Address verification is the process of confirming the existence of a street and its postal addresses. Customers using address verification can designate their delivery address as either commercial or residential, with different carriers having their own address type requirements. Shipping rates and options are influenced by the address type selected.

Address verification is crucial due to the cost difference between residential and commercial addresses that e-commerce businesses have to bear. Residential deliveries can significantly increase costs for your business.

A commercial address is a contact address that businesses provide to their clients, suppliers, vendors, banks, shareholders, and more. It also serves as your billing address. Options for choosing a commercial address include a private individual's residence, corporate headquarters, home or office addresses where products are shipped to customers, the office address of directors, secretaries, or members of an LLP, LLP's contact information, business addresses, or mail forwarding services, and post office boxes.

Residential addresses are typically used by friends and family to visit you or for direct package deliveries. Residential addresses can be referred to in various ways, including the address of the residence, home mail address, address of the current residence, your home address, and your residential postal address. Regardless of what it is called, your residential address is where you live, sleep, and conduct personal affairs.
