Item 165 : Application of Rates - Zip Code Prefix
1. Where rates are determined or the application of those rates is governed by Zip Code Prefix Groups, those Groups include all points assigned to the same first three digits of the U.S. Postal Service Zip Code. For example, where a Zip Prefix Group such as "386 thru 394" or "386-394" is used, the Zip Code Prefix Group is all inclusive of such three-digit zip code numbers.
2. A zip code prefix assigned to a customer's physical location will be used for rate making purposes.
3. Where no zip code prefix is provided for the actual origin (and/or destination), apply the zip code prefix for the nearest point for which a zip code prefix is provided, subject to Paragraph 1 above.
