# Delete User Address

> **API operation:** [Open the endpoint in Scalar](https://docs.ordering.co/api-reference/#tag/users/DELETE/users/{user_id}/addresses/{address_id})

Use `DELETE /users/{user_id}/addresses/{address_id}` to delete a user address. The operation documented here is `Address.delete`.

The documented schema requires authentication and blocks a customer from deleting an address through another `user_id`. Do not assume the route enforces that `address_id` belongs to the supplied `user_id` for every role. Verify both identifiers and access controls before use. Deletion is destructive.

```javascript
const response = await ordering.users(userId).addresses(addressId).delete();
```

This SDK syntax is historical. Confirm the package and version before using it. See [User address model](https://docs.ordering.co/api-reference/guides/addresses-model/).
