Can you put a mail hold on your p.o. box?

Answer 1

I'm sure you can. Talk to your local post office, the branch where your box is located.

Answer 2

Yes, you have to go to the post office which holds your box & fill out a form which asks the length of time you want your mail to be held and sign you name.  You probably will need a picture, Id, too.
