IP31 3HQ is a postal code used within the United Kingdom for delivering mail.
Postcodes are made up of two parts. The part before the space (IP31) is called the outward code. The part after the space (3HQ) is called the inward code. The letters C, I, K, M, O and V are not allowed in the inward code. In addition to the inward and outward code, the postcode can be broken up into four parts:
- Postal Area. In our case IP which means Ipswich.
- Postal District. In our case IP31.
- Postal Sector. In our case IP31 3.
- Postcode Unit. The last two letters. In our case HQ.
The regional mail center for the post area IP is the National Distribution Centre, which is located at Danes Way, NORTHAMPTON, NN6 7DD.
The final port of call for any post addressed to the IP31 3HQ postcode is the local delivery office (DO) which is THURSTON SPDO. Here the post will be sorted ready for delivery.
