Forward mail to post office box

To forward mail to a post office box, you'll need to set up a mail forwarding service with the United States Postal Service (USPS). Here's a step-by-step guide to help you do so:

Option 1: Online Forwarding

1. Go to the USPS website (www.usps.com) and sign in to your account or create one if you don't have one.
2. Click on "Mail & Ship" and then "Forwarding" from the top menu.
3. Fill out the "Forward Mail" form with the following information:
   • Your name and address (the address you want to forward mail from)
   • The post office box number you want to forward mail to
   • The length of time you want to forward mail (e.g., 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, etc.)
4. Pay the forwarding fee (currently $20 for 1 month, $30 for 3 months, and $40 for 6 months).
5. Confirm your request and print the confirmation page.

Option 2: In-Person Forwarding

1. Visit your local post office and ask to set up a mail forwarding service.
2. Fill out the "Forward Mail" form with the same information as above.
3. Pay the forwarding fee (cash, check, or credit card).
4. The post office will provide you with a confirmation receipt.

What to Expect

Once you've set up mail forwarding, here's what you can expect:

• The USPS will forward your mail to the post office box you specified.
• The forwarding service will continue for the duration you selected (1 month, 3 months, 6 months, etc.).
• You can cancel the forwarding service at any time by contacting the USPS or visiting your local post office.
• Keep in mind that the USPS may not forward certain types of mail, such as packages or items that require a signature.

Tips and Reminders

• Make sure to update your address with the USPS, your bank, credit card company, and other relevant parties to ensure they send your mail to your new post office box.
• Keep in mind that mail forwarding may not be available for all types of mail, such as packages or items that require a signature.
• If you're forwarding mail to a post office box, be sure to check with the post office to confirm their hours and availability for receiving mail.
