Tips:
- If you're only expecting a small amount of mail, you might consider using a private mail forwarding service that offers a "micro-forwarding" option, which can be more cost-effective.
- If you're moving internationally, you may need to use a private mail forwarding service that specializes in international mail forwarding.
- Be sure to check the terms and conditions of any mail forwarding service you choose, as some may have restrictions on the types of mail they can forward or the frequency of delivery.
Remember to always verify the costs and services with the mail forwarding provider before signing up.
