Does priority mail go to mailbox

In the United States, Priority Mail from the United States Postal Service (USPS) typically does not go to a mailbox. Instead, it is delivered to your doorstep or a designated delivery location, such as:

  1. Your home: If you're not present, the carrier will leave the package at your doorstep or in a secure location, such as a porch or a designated delivery area.
  2. Your office or workplace: If you've provided a business address, the package will be delivered to your office or workplace.
  3. A nearby postal facility: If you're not present and there's no secure location to leave the package, the carrier may take it to a nearby postal facility for you to pick up.
  4. A delivery locker or package center: Some areas have delivery lockers or package centers where you can pick up your packages at your convenience.

However, there are some exceptions:

  1. PO Box: If you have a PO Box, Priority Mail will be delivered to the post office where your PO Box is located. You'll need to go to the post office to pick up your package.
  2. Rural areas: In some rural areas, Priority Mail may be delivered to a post office or a community mailbox, especially if there's no direct delivery to your doorstep.
  3. Special delivery: In some cases, Priority Mail may be delivered to a special location, such as a hospital or a nursing home, if you've specified a special delivery address.

It's always a good idea to check with your local post office or the USPS website to confirm the delivery details for your specific Priority Mail package.
