Some people in my area use these services and I've considered it because mail theft is a big problem in my area. Organized rings doing package theft, identify theft, and all that. So for us at least, it seems significantly safer than having it delivered directly. Personally I just go paperless as much as possible and have the post office hold my mail (another popular response).

- bragr 5y agoThe problem with PO boxes, besides being in short supply, is all the places that can't accept or ship to PO boxes (DMV, voter registration, private parcel services, insurance companies, ...)
- 5555624 5y agoWhile it cannot be used as an option for "your physical residence.... in legal documents" -- voter registration or the DMV -- the USPS does offer "Street Addressing Service." It provides a street address you can use with UPS, FedEx, and others. P.O. Box 59 would be 500 Main Street #59 (for a Post Office located at 500 Main Street). The service is free. (I just filled out the form two days ago.)
