  2. Map multiple addresses

Put a whole list of addresses on a map at once.

Paste a column of addresses or drop in a spreadsheet, and each one lands on the map as a pin. Color them by whatever you track, then turn them into routes when it's time to drive.

The short answer

Updated October 19, 2026

Lite Route Planner maps multiple addresses at once: paste a list or upload an Excel or CSV file, and every address appears as a pin, with any it couldn't place flagged for you to fix. Color the pins by any column you kept, or by route, driver or last visit, then lasso groups into routes and optimize them in one click. It's free for up to 50 addresses, and Business plans hold up to 10,000. Google My Maps can plot up to 2,000 rows per import, but it doesn't put stops in order or send routes to drivers.

Map a list of addresses, step by step

  1. 1

    Paste or upload

    Copy addresses from anywhere, one per line, or upload an .xlsx, .xls, .csv or .tsv file. If street, city, state and zip sit in separate columns, they're joined into one address.

  2. 2

    Check the flags

    Every address is looked up and pinned. Any it couldn't find, or could only place roughly, is flagged. Retype it, paste the latitude and longitude, or click the map where it belongs.

  3. 3

    Color and filter

    Use Color By to color the pins by any column you brought in, or by route, driver or last visit. Use Filters to hide what you don't need right now.

  4. 4

    Turn pins into routes

    Draw a loop around a cluster to make a route, press Optimize, and send it to a phone.

Color the pins by what matters to you

Pins in one color tell you where things are. Colors tell you what they are.

  • Text columns

    Service type, sales rep, territory. Each value gets its own color, up to eight, and the rest are grouped as other values.

  • Numbers

    Contract value, lawn size, number of bins. Pins shade from light to dark across the range.

  • Dates

    Renewal date or last service date, shaded from the earliest to the latest.

  • Yes or no

    Gate code on file, key required, paid up. Two colors, easy to scan.

  • Last visit

    From within a week to over two months ago, plus never visited. See the customer visit map.

  • Route and driver

    See which pins are already on a route, and whose day they're in.

When Google My Maps is enough, and when it isn't

If you need a map to look at, print or share once, Google My Maps is free and does the job. It imports CSV, TSV, KML, KMZ, GPX, XLSX or a Google Sheet, up to 2,000 rows per import and 10 layers per map. For a club directory or a list of rental properties, that's plenty.

It runs out when the map is really a to-do list. My Maps draws directions for only 10 points per layer, keeps them in the order you gave, and has no way to mark a place visited. Google Maps itself doesn't import a list at all: you add places one at a time, up to 10 in a trip. Here's how to map addresses from Excel either way.

In Lite, the pins are already stops. Lasso a group into a route of up to 500 stops, put it in the shortest order, hand it to a driver, and every visit goes into that address's history.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

The questions people ask before they plan their first route.

Try it free

How do I plot multiple addresses on Google Maps?

Google Maps doesn't import a list; you add places one at a time, up to 10 in one trip. Google My Maps imports a spreadsheet of up to 2,000 rows and drops a pin for each, but it doesn't reorder or route them. Lite Route Planner plots the list and turns the pins into optimized routes, free for up to 50 addresses.

How many addresses can I put on one map?

Free for up to 50 addresses. Personal holds up to 200, and Business plans hold from 1,000 to 10,000. Every address you keep stays on the map until you delete it.

Can I make a map with different colored pins?

Yes. Color pins by any column you kept from your spreadsheet, whether it's text, a number, a date or yes/no, or by route, driver, last visit, last outcome or times visited. Each color is labeled, and you can filter to show only some of them.

What happens to addresses it can't find?

They're flagged, not dropped. Retype the address, paste latitude and longitude, or click the map to place the pin yourself. Addresses it could only place roughly are flagged too, so you can confirm them.

Can I map addresses outside the US?

Yes. Address search covers addresses worldwide, and distances can show in miles or kilometers.

Can I share the map with someone?

You can share any route with a link or QR code that opens in a browser with no account; it shows that route's stops in order. On Business, the admins you invite to your team work from the same map.

Do I need a spreadsheet?

No. Paste addresses one per line, type them into the search box, or click the map to drop a pin.
