Default USPS.com has online holding for our mail

I was looking for an online form to hold our mail for our last vacation, and found that the USPS.com site has online mail holding:

https://holdmail.usps.com/duns/HoldMail.jsp

We used it during our last TM trip and it worked great. Very convenient.

Yes, thank you!! I was just looking on their site for this when we went on vacation for a week back in July and didn't see it so it must be very new. Instead we had to get the form from the P.O. who told us we could just put it in the mailbox and they would hold our mail. Much to our dismay, when we returned the box was full and the notice to hold our mail was crumpled up and still left in the bottom of the box.

I have already used the online mail hold 3 times this year. Works great.

Default USPS Mail options

The U.S. Postal Service also has a Premium Forwarding Service you might want to check out. They will hold your mail then mail it to you once a week. It can be sent to one set site or else you can call in and have it sent to a different location each week - your choice.

We went to our local Post Office, filled out the form for PFS, and gave them a check to cover the length of time we thought we'd be gone.

Then we called the local Postmaster when we decided where we'd be on a certain date. We found that the best for us was to use General Delivery at a small town's Post Office on any given highway we'd be on in a week or so ..... it calls for a little planning but not too much!

We liked using small towns because there was NO hassle with traffic or parking plus we'd sometimes call ahead and see if the mail is in before actually driving over and the postmaster would actually remember your name when you go in! Love small towns

Good Luck!
