Adding a Drop Ship Address to Your Address Book

A drop ship address is a one-off delivery destination that isn't one of your account's standard Ship To addresses — a job site, a customer's location, or a temporary warehouse. Adding it to your Address Book saves it for reuse so you don't have to retype it on every order.

Before you begin: You're already signed in and on your My Dashboard page, with the account you want to add the address to selected. Have the delivery address details on hand — company name, street address, city, state, ZIP code and a contact phone number.


Step 1 — Open your Address Book

In the left-hand menu, under Account, click Address Book.

The page shows two lists:

  • Account Ship-To Addresses — the standard delivery locations already set up on your account. These are managed for you and can't be added to from this page.
  • Alternate/Dropship Addresses — the one-off addresses you add yourself. If you haven't added any yet, this section reads No addresses found.

Step 2 — Start a new drop ship address

Click ADD DROP SHIP to the right of the Alternate/Dropship Addresses heading.

A panel titled Add Dropship Address slides in from the right side of the screen. Country is already set to United States of America for you.

Step 3 — Fill in the address

Enter the delivery details. Only a few fields are required — the rest are there to help the carrier find the right door.

FieldWhat to enter
Company Name or C/OThe business or person receiving the shipment
Street AddressThe street number and name
Suite, Unit, Building, etc.Any secondary address line — optional
Attn.A specific person to receive the delivery — optional
CountryLeave as United States of America, or change it if shipping elsewhere
CityThe delivery city
StatePick the state from the dropdown
Zip/Postal CodeThe delivery ZIP code
Phone NumberA contact number for the delivery — formatting is applied as you type
ExtensionA phone extension, if there is one — optional

In this example, we're adding Copilot Test Company, 123 Demo Street, Suite 400, Milwaukee, WI 53202 with a phone number of (414) 555-0142.

Step 4 — Save the address

Click SAVE at the bottom of the panel.

Your address is checked against a delivery-address database. If it can't be matched exactly, an Address Verification window appears showing what you typed, along with any corrected version it suggests (highlighted in green).

  • Pick the version you want to keep, then click CONTINUE to save it.
  • Or click EDIT ADDRESS to go back and fix a typo.

If the address matches cleanly, this window won't appear at all and your address saves right away.

Step 5 — Check that it was added

The panel closes and a green message confirms New address added successfully.

Your new address now appears under Alternate/Dropship Addresses, with an EDIT link to change it later and an icon to remove it.

Step 6 — Find an address later

Once you have several addresses saved, use the search box at the top of the Address Book to narrow the list. Start typing a company name, street or city and both sections filter as you type.

That's it. Your drop ship address is saved to the account and will be available to choose as a delivery destination when you place an order. You can come back to the Address Book any time to edit it or remove it.
