🔃postcodetypevalue
🔃 This code list is used in association with the Postcode Type and Multi Residence Postcode Type attributes which are present in the Royal Mail Address Feature Types. It describes the postcode as a small or large user as defined by Royal Mail.
Large User
These are assigned to one single address either due to the large volume of mail received at that address, or because a PO Box or Selectapost service has been set up. Large Users receive a minimum of over 1 000 items of mail a day.
Small User
These identify a group of delivery points. On average there are 15 delivery points per postcode. However, this can vary between 1 and, in some cases, 100. There will never be more than 100 delivery points on a postcode.
