In this case, the 519 code has been Overlayed with one of the following codes: 226, 382 or 548. New phone numbers in the Springwater area will be assigned with one of these codes: 519, 226, 382 or 548.

The Canadian Postal Code consists of 6 characters, where the first three characters are the 'Forward Sortation Area (FSA)', with the last three characters being the 'Local Delivery Unit (LDU)'. In the case of Springwater, we provide only the FSA and not the LDU. The Canadian Postal Codes were created as a way of grouping addresses to make delivery more efficient. So keep in mind that any given Postal Code is only 'loosely' associated with a community (such as Springwater). The boundaries of the Postal Code can be changed, re-assigned, eliminated or overlapped with other Postal Codes. When looking for a Postal Code, whether Springwater or elsewhere, it's always best to check the website of the Canada Post / Postes Canada.
