:/ Help: trying to find the street my friend lives on but ca

Post » Thu Dec 01, 2011 7:34 am

so i tried looking teh street up in the phonebook on teh map pages but the worlds all get clustered together and its ahrd to read

so then i tried canada411 (just google that 1st link at top) and in order to find teh stree i need to know teh postal code ... thing is i dont even know my own postal code how am i supposed to know it for my friends new house (they still havent hooked up a phone so all he could give me was the address)

does any one know a legitimate site where all i need is a street name and the city + province and will give me a map of where it is so that i can scroll/ zoom out abit to get my bearing and find my friends house ?

Use Mapquest?

How are you supposed to find anything without a street address or postal code though? You could reverse look up his address if you have his phone number I guess...

It may show the old address though if hes moved.

he doesnt have a phone connected for his house and like me doesnt own a cell

I dont know the postal code but i have the street address but canada411 says the postal code is mandatory which just well svcks cuz i have the street and hosue number its still in same city and obviously same province/territory my only problem is icant locate teh street in the phonebook map and the internet one wont let me search unless i fill out all fields including postal code :/

All you have to do is type in the adress and street number and it should work. It'll even give you the postal code. :)

The US Postal Service has a http://zip4.usps.com/zip4/welcome.jsp- just enter your address and it'll give you your postal code. If you can find something like that for Canada you should be good to go.
