How do i hold mail delivery
There are a few ways to hold mail delivery, depending on your specific situation and the policies of your local post office. Here are a few options:
- Suspend Delivery: You can suspend mail delivery temporarily while you're away on vacation or business. To do this, you'll need to fill out a "Hold Mail" request form, which is available at your local post office or online. You can also use the USPS website to request a hold on your mail.
- Hold Mail at the Post Office: If you're going to be away for an extended period, you can have your mail held at the post office instead of having it delivered to your home. To do this, you'll need to fill out a "Hold Mail" request form and take it to your local post office. The post office will hold your mail for up to 30 days.
- Redirect Mail: If you're moving to a new address, you can redirect your mail to your new address. To do this, you'll need to fill out a "Change of Address" form, which is available at your local post office or online. You can also use the USPS website to request a change of address.
- Use a Mail Forwarding Service: If you're going to be away for an extended period and don't want to have your mail held at the post office, you can use a mail forwarding service. These services will forward your mail to a new address for a fee.
To request a hold on your mail, you'll need to provide the following information:
- Your name and address
- The dates you want your mail held
- Your reason for requesting a hold (e.g. vacation, business trip, moving)
You can request a hold on your mail by:
- Visiting your local post office and filling out a "Hold Mail" request form
- Using the USPS website to request a hold on your mail
- Calling the USPS customer service number (1-800-275-8777) and speaking with a representative
Keep in mind that there may be a fee associated with holding your mail, depending on the length of time you want it held and the type of service you choose.
