How to Find Distance Between ZIP Codes

Type in the first and second ZIP Code then click the Show button. The map will then display the location of the two ZIP Codes and also show the routes for:

• Land transport - by car and/or boat
• As the crow flies - the straight distance between the points

You will also see the distance displayed below the map for the distance as the crow flies and also by land transport. You can then type in more postcodes and click the show button to see more distances.
