The convenience of holding your mail!

The United States Postal Service (USPS) offers a service called "Hold Mail" that allows you to temporarily suspend mail delivery to your address while you're away. Here's how it works:

How to Hold Your Mail:

1. Online: Go to the USPS website (usps.com) and sign in to your account. Click on "Hold Mail" and follow the prompts.
2. Phone: Call the USPS Customer Service number at 1-800-275-8777 and ask to hold your mail.
3. In Person: Visit your local post office and ask to hold your mail.

What You Need to Know:

• You can hold your mail for up to 30 days.
• You can hold mail for a specific date range or until a specific date.
• You'll need to provide your name, address, and a reason for holding your mail (optional).
• If you're holding mail for an extended period, you may need to provide a forwarding address.
• You can also request that your mail be held at a post office near you instead of your home address.

Benefits:

• Prevent mail theft or loss while you're away.
• Keep your mail safe from prying eyes.
• Avoid clutter and mess when you return from a trip.
• Make it easier to manage your mail when you're away for an extended period.

Tips:

• Make sure to request that your mail be held at least 3 business days before your desired hold date to ensure your mail is not delivered.
• If you're holding mail for an extended period, consider setting up a forwarding address to ensure your important mail is delivered to you.
• Don't forget to cancel your hold request when you return from your trip to ensure your mail is delivered as usual.

Now, go ahead and hold that mail!
