WHY RENT A PO BOX


SECURITY

Know your packages and mail are safe at the Post Office and can only be picked
up by you or people you specify.


PRIVACY

Keep your home address private and important documents confidential for peace of
mind.


FLEXIBILITY

Get your mail on your schedule, your way, with a range of PO Box sizes and
rental terms of 3-, 6-, and 12-months.


PO BOX SIZE OPTIONS

Most Post Offices have 5 PO Box sizes, depending on availability*. Sizes range
from extra small (XS – Size 1) to extra large (XL – Size 5). Choose your PO Box
size based on the type of mail (letter-sized mail or packages) and how much mail
and packages you receive.


LARGER PACKAGES FOR PO BOXES

If you get packages that don't fit into your PO Box, you'll either:

 * Get a slip to pick them up from the counter during normal business hours
 * Get your package from a secure parcel locker at your convenience

*Note: The depth of most PO Boxes is 14.75". All sizes not available in all
locations. Prices differ depending on your location.

 * Street Addressing: Get a delivery address for packages from other carriers
   (including Amazon, DHL, FedEx, and UPS); subject to availability and
   restrictions.
 * Keep your signature on file so you don’t need to wait in line to sign for a
   package. When your signature is on file, we’ll place mail in your PO Box or
   in a secure parcel locker for pickup at your convenience.
 * Small businesses: Whether you've got a side hustle or a storefront, get a
   professional-looking address and keep your personal and business lives
   separate.

MORE ON PO BOXES


THE BASICS

WHAT IS A PO BOX?

A PO Box is a secure, numbered box located at the Post Office where your mail is
kept until you collect it.

I WOULD LIKE TO OPEN A PO BOX. WHAT ARE THE STEPS?

To open your PO Box online:

Step 1: Search for Post Office locations near you by using the search bar under
"Find a PO Box Near You."

Step 2: Choose a Post Office location and select your desired PO Box size and
payment period.

Step 3: Complete the online application form, accept the Terms & Conditions,
enter your billing and payment information, and review and submit your
application to reserve your PO Box.

Step 4: Print your completed form and bring it to the Post Office counter where
your box is located, along with 2 forms of acceptable U.S. identification
(within 30 days of submitting your online application). After the retail
associate verifies your identity, you’ll get your PO Box keys.

To apply for a PO Box in person at a Post Office:

Step 1: Optional Time-Saving Tip: If you have a printer, download "PS Form 1093,
Application for Post Office Box Service," Application for Post Office Box
Service, fill it out, then print it out (note: if you apply for a PO Box online,
this form is automatically generated). Bring the completed form with you to the
Post Office.

Step 2: Bring your payment and 2 forms of acceptable U.S. identification to the
Post Office and tell the retail associate at the counter that you'd like to
apply for a PO Box.

WHAT IF THE PO BOX I WANT IS NOT AVAILABLE?

You have a few options: You can choose another box size, find a box at a
different location, or request to be added to the wait list (online or at a Post
Office). If you request to be added to the wait list, your name will be placed
on a list for that box size at the location you requested. We'll contact you via
an email or phone call when the box becomes available. You'll then have 2 days
to reserve the box before it goes to the next person on the wait list.


PAYMENTS

WHAT OPTIONS DO I HAVE FOR MAKING A PAYMENT ON MY PO BOX?

You have 4 different options for making a PO Box payment:

 * Online with a credit or debit card. Go to the PO Boxes Online application and
   click "Renew" to go to the "Manage PO Box" page. Then, click "Renew PO Box"
   to make a one-time payment. This feature is available 30 days before your
   next payment is due. Also note, when paying with a credit or debit card, you
   can store up to 3 credit or debit cards safely and securely in our system.
 * Pay at a self-service kiosk (SSK): You can find an SSK using Find USPS
   Locations.
 * Pay by mail: Send a check or money order payable to "U.S. Postal Service" to
   the Postmaster where your PO Box is located. (Include your PO Box number on
   the memo line of the check.)
 * Pay in person: Pay at the Post Office where your PO Box is located using
   cash, check, credit card, or debit card.

HOW FREQUENTLY DO I HAVE TO PAY FOR MY PO BOX?

When you're ready to pay for your PO Box, you have 3 payment term options: 3
months, 6 months, or 12 months. A 3-month payment term requires enrolling in
automatic renewals with no opt-out. However, if you choose a 6- or 12-month
period, you can opt out of automatic renewals.

CAN I RENEW MY PO BOX ONLINE, OR DO I HAVE TO DO IT IN PERSON?

There are 4 ways you can renew your PO Box:

 * Online with a credit or debit card. Go to the PO Boxes Online application and
   click Renew, which will take you to the "Manage PO Box" page. Then, click
   Renew PO Box. This feature is available 30 days before your next payment is
   due.
 * At a self-service kiosk. Find a kiosk.
 * Renew by mail. Send a check or money order payable to "U.S. Postal Service"
   to the Postmaster where your PO Box is located. (Include your PO Box number
   on the memo line of the check.)
 * Visit the Post Office where your box is located. Pay by cash, check, or
   credit card.

ARE PO BOX RENTAL FEES ELIGIBLE FOR A REFUND?

You pay for a full rental period at the beginning; however, if you decide to
close your box, you'll get a partial refund depending on how long you've had the
box. See full details on refunds.


ACCESS & SERVICES FOR YOUR PO BOX

I RECENTLY OPENED A PO BOX. HOW DO I GET MY PO BOX NUMBER AND THE KEYS FOR MY
BOX?

Once you've reserved your box, completed the PO Box application (PS Form 1093),
paid the rental fee, and verified your 2 forms of acceptable ID at the Post
Office counter where your box is located, you'll get 2 keys for your box. If you
need more than 2 keys, you can request more for an additional fee.

CAN I ACCESS MY PO BOX ANY TIME OF THE DAY?

Most PO Box locations allow 24/7 access to your PO Box; however, hours vary by
Post Office location. Look up the hours for the facility where your PO Box is
located.

I AM A SMALL BUSINESS OWNER. ARE THERE ANY ADDITIONAL SERVICES I CAN GET WITH MY
PO BOX?

If you are a small business owner, a few great services are available for you,
including Caller Service, designed for customers who have more than 5 PO Boxes
at one location or who receive more mail than will fit in the largest PO Box. If
there is an overflow of mail, we'll hold the mail for you to pick up at a time
that works best for you. Learn more about services available for small
businesses.

CAN I CHANGE MY BUSINESS ACCOUNT TO A PERSONAL ACCOUNT OR VICE-VERSA?

You can change your personal account to a business account: Go to Your Profile
and click Edit. In the upper right-hand corner, click Change to Business Account
to switch your personal account to a business account.

If you currently have a USPS.com business account, you can't change your
business account to a personal account. Instead, you'll need to create a new,
separate personal account and re-verify your identity.

HOW DO I MANAGE MY PO BOX ACCOUNT ONLINE?

Select Manage PO Box, sign in, and you can:

 * Open a new PO Box
 * Add an existing PO Box to your online account
 * Add or manage the credit card you use for payment
 * Edit your User Profile
 * View your online payment history

WHAT IS STREET ADDRESSING AND HOW CAN I GET IT FOR MY PO BOX?

An additional service to consider adding to your PO Box is Street Addressing.
With Street Addressing (if available), you have the option of using the street
address of your Post Office location, combined with your PO Box number, as your
mailing address. This lets you receive packages from private carriers (such as
UPS, FedEx, DHL and Amazon), as long as they comply with USPS mailing standards.
See the Customer Agreement for more details.

HOW DO I CLOSE A PO BOX IF I MOVE?

You can close a PO Box by going to Manage PO Box, signing in to your account,
and clicking the Close/Request Refund link next to the box. You can also request
a PO Box be closed by informing the retail associate at the Post Office where
your box is located. Once a box is closed, be sure to submit a Change of Address
(COA) form. Depending on where you close your box, the form will be provided
online on your close/refund confirmation page or by the retail associate at the
Post Office. Your mail can be forwarded to your new address for up to one year.

CAN I RECEIVE ITEMS THAT NEED A SIGNATURE TO MY PO BOX?

Yes. For deliveries that require a signature, we'll leave a delivery notice
inside your PO Box, and you'll go to the counter to sign for and pick up your
package. If you sign up for the free Signature on File service, we'll leave the
item in your PO Box.
