If the address or postcode you search for cannot be found, click Can't find what you're looking for? to manually enter the address details.

After saving the address, you can create an account label for the address or add a recommended distance. Click on the tabs at the top of the page for more information.
Add an Account-wide Label
- Click New Address in the 'Page Options' menu and then click the Account-wide Labels tab.
- Click New Account-wide Label.
- Enter a name for the label.
- If required, you can set this label as the primary label for the address. This is useful if there are multiple labels for the address. If you set this label as the primary label, it will appear ahead of all other labels when performing a search.
- Click Save to store the label.
Add a Recommended Distance
Recommended distances allow you to set a custom distance between two locations, overriding the distance that is provided by our data supplier for the fastest and shortest routes. This allows you to use local knowledge to determine distances which may be better suited for routes that are taken between common locations.
- Click New Address in the 'Page Options' menu and then click the Recommended Distances tab.
- Begin typing the address or postcode in the Destination field and select the address.
- Enter the distance from this address to the address you have just selected in the Outbound Custom field.
- Enter the distance from the address that you just selected to this address in the Return Custom field.
- Click to add the recommended distance. The destination will move into the Address Distances section as a stored recommended distance. The Outbound and Return fields can still be modified if required.
- Repeat steps 2 - 5 to store any additional recommended distances for this address.
- Click Save to confirm your changes.
