You can set up a forwarding address for the United States Postal Service to use at the official USPS website. You can also do this for both FedEx and the UPS company.

How can i success mail carrier post office?

there is only one thing you can do to success in a post office. You will have to have years of experience.


Does a returned mail piece need new postage to forward to the correct address?

As of July 2012, the USPS will NOT forward mail if there is a one line drawn through the incorrect or former address, and then forward. Now the process MUST include going to the post office, or filling out form online ($1.00 charge online or phone) to have mail forwarded for 15 days to 6 months. The catch is that it takes the post office 15 days to process the forwarding of mail, and by then many who are awaiting their forwarded mail now have delayed bills, and incurring late fees. The post office does NOT want to do their JOB any more. Forwarding mail simply by lining out and writing the forwarded address will NOT cover the expenses of the mail person to pick up the mail and redirect (even though they are going to the post office anyway). Another tidbit of information, because the USPS knows they have this problem, they are now offering Priority Mail forwarding service for nearly $16 per month to forward you mail.


Where could one go to get their mail redirected?

If one needs to have their mail redirected, the best place to go in the local post office. There is a form one can fill out if they are going to be moving or out of town for an extended period of time. Once the form has been submitted, the mail will be forwarded to the new address.


How long to get a post office box?

In some cases, (I'm assuming you are in the US) Post Offices may issue you a box while you are there, as long as you have two forms of ID (One with a picture). Sometimes a post office may decide to verify your information if you live in another town. In this case they usually send your application off with the evening collections to your home Post Office where they have your mail courier verify you actually live where you say you do. They then send it back to the Post Office where you are applying for PO Box/Caller Service and they will give you a call and tell you that you may come and pay for it, get your number assignment and your keys. This process can take anywhere from 3-5 days depending on how far you live from the Post Office in which you are requesting service.


Where can one find a mail listing?

Depending on the listing you are trying to look up, you can generally find a local mail listing by contacting your post office. There are many mailers also in your local area, and they frequently have many listing for different residential areas, so that they know where to send their mail. Contacting them, may also give your answer.

The post office is always a good bet. Some of the outlets will also have them. Currently you can get one for 44 cents. The Forever stamp is worth the cost to mail one ounce of first class mail. It will always be worth that much regardless of how much it costs at the post office.
