Mail redirection! A useful service that allows you to forward your mail to a new address. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to set it up:

Why redirect your mail?

You might need to redirect your mail for various reasons, such as:

• Moving to a new home or office
• Changing your name (e.g., due to marriage or divorce)
• Closing a business or account
• Protecting your privacy or security

How to redirect your mail:

1. Gather necessary information:
   • Your current address (the one you want to redirect from)
   • Your new address (the one you want to redirect to)
   • Your name (as it appears on your mail)
2. Choose a mail redirection service:
   • USPS (United States Postal Service): The USPS offers a mail forwarding service called "Change of Address" (COA). You can apply online or by mail.
   • Private mail forwarding services: Companies like EarthClassMail, Mail Forwarding, and others offer similar services.
3. Apply for mail redirection:
   • USPS COA: Fill out the online application or download the form (PS 3575) and mail it to the USPS. You'll need to provide your current and new addresses, as well as your name.
   • Private mail forwarding services: Follow the application process on the service's website or contact their customer support.
4. Set up your redirect:
   • USPS COA: Your redirect will typically start within 3-5 business days after submitting your application. You can track your mail online or through the USPS mobile app.
   • Private mail forwarding services: The service will typically start processing your mail within 1-3 business days after receiving your application.

Tips and considerations:

• Notify your banks, creditors, and other relevant parties about your address change to ensure they update their records.
• Keep your redirect active for as long as you need it. You can cancel or modify your redirect at any time.
• Be aware of potential delays in mail delivery, especially if you're redirecting international mail.
• Check with your local post office for any specific requirements or restrictions on mail redirection in your area.

By following these steps, you'll be able to redirect your mail to your new address, ensuring a smooth transition and minimizing any disruptions to your daily life.
