The '''RM postcode area''', also known as the '''Romford postcode area''',<ref>Royal Mail, ''Address Management Guide'', (2004)</ref> is a group of twenty postcode districts in south-east [[England]], within nine [[post town]]s. These cover parts of east [[London]] and southwest [[Essex]]. Inward mail for the area is sorted, along with mail for the [[E postcode area|E]] and [[IG postcode area|IG]] postcode areas, at the Romford Mail Centre.<br />
<br />
In east London, the area covers most of the [[London Borough of Havering]] (including [[Romford]], [[Hornchurch]], [[Rainham, London|Rainham]] and [[Upminster]]), the eastern part of the [[London Borough of Barking and Dagenham]] (including [[Dagenham]] itself) and a small part of the [[London Borough of Redbridge]]. In Essex, the area covers most of the [[Thurrock]] unitary district (including [[Grays, Essex|Grays]], [[Purfleet]], [[South Ockendon]] and [[Tilbury]]), while RM4 covers small parts of the [[Epping Forest District]] and the [[Borough of Brentwood]].<br />
