The last four numbers are what is called zip plus 4...the USPS can deliver a package to the correct address, even if many other things are incorrect in the address if the zip plus 4 is present. But the last four numbers are not necessary, but often an aid (especially for people for me, I recently sent a package to Iowa and forgot to put the street number, but because I used the zip plus 4, it made it there just fine)...and Jimmy, it isn't hard to find the whole zip plus 4..just go to the USPS site (www.usps.gov) and you can easily look it up...
