Question

How do I open a P.O. box No. from the post office?

Answer 1

you have to go pay for a P.O. Box. They charge yearly and everywhere is different depending on the demand they have for them. You can go to a place that is like a mailboxes etc. type of place and get them for pretty cheap. We have a place here by where I live that you can get them for $40 a year. Just go in and tell them you want to open a PO Box in your name. Hope that helps.

Answer 2

PO Boxes are rented on a Semi-annual basis if you do not wish to pay for a whole year.

You will need to have photo identification as well as something to prove that you live at the address you have listed on the app as your physical address. A Utility Bill is fine for that.

Not that you would, but don't bother if you're going to have some crazy story about why your name doesn't match an address or asomething like that. We have heard them all, and the rules are not flexible on this.

Fees, based on a semi-annual payment, and sizes for PO Boxes.

Answer 3

Just go to the post office where you want your PO box  and tell them that you need a PO Box, they'll give u an application, they may ask u for 2 different ID's and then you'll have to pay your fee.... the prices are different.. according to the box size..

Then they'll give you your keys.. and that's it!!  it is an easy and fast process!!
