But…the Post Office’s own instructions do not require a surname. They require a “recipient name”.

‘S-ok.

Granddaughter recently sent her wedding invitation to us addressed “Nanna & Pop” (with our address but no surname).

Unfortunately, the PO pigeonholes are not by address – they are by family name.

that seems a very backwards way of sorting the mail at your local post office.

When I was a postie I was taught to ignore the addressee and only look at the address.
