Does it cost to forward your mail

In the United States, the United States Postal Service (USPS) offers a service called "Mail Forwarding" or "Change of Address" that allows you to forward your mail to a new address. The cost of mail forwarding depends on the type of service you choose and the length of time you need it.

Here are the current rates for USPS Mail Forwarding:

Domestic Mail Forwarding

• 6 months: $20.00
• 12 months: $40.00
• 24 months: $80.00

International Mail Forwarding

• 6 months: $30.00
• 12 months: $60.00
• 24 months: $120.00

Additional Fees

• Each additional piece of mail forwarded: $0.50
• Each additional package forwarded: $2.00

Note: These rates are subject to change, so it's always best to check the USPS website or visit a local post office for the most up-to-date information.

When you sign up for mail forwarding, you'll need to provide your old address, your new address, and a payment method. The USPS will then forward your mail to your new address for the specified period of time.

Keep in mind that mail forwarding is not the same as a mailbox rental service, which may offer additional features like package acceptance and notification. If you're looking for a mailbox rental service, you may need to pay a separate fee for that service.
