- They'll assist you with the process.
Option 3: In-Person

Important Notes:
- You can hold your mail for up to 30 days.
- If you're going to be away for an extended period, you may want to consider forwarding your mail instead of holding it.
- If you're a business owner, you may need to contact your local post office or a USPS representative to set up a mail hold.
- If you're experiencing issues with mail theft or delivery, you may want to consider reporting it to the USPS or your local authorities.
Remember to update your mail hold request if your travel dates change or if you need to cancel the hold.
