Company Overview

Anytime Mailbox

Anytime Mailbox, founded in 2017, offers digital mailbox service at about 1,317 locations. Users access their digital mailbox with an app or go online to view and manage their mail. Anytime lets each mail center operator set its own plan elements and pricing, so there are no standards across the Anytime network. The founders do not have experience in the mailbox and shipping industry.

iPostal1

iPostal1 is the worldwide leader in the digital mailbox industry, introducing digital mailbox technology in 2007 at our own retail pack and ship store, and improving it every year since. Launched in 2015, iPostal1 is now the largest provider network with over 3,250 locations in the U.S. and abroad. The guiding principle for our business is to offer consistent plans, pricing, and features across all locations to make it simple and easy to choose the plan and location that best meets your need.

Mail and packages are received, stored and handled at your selected address. You view and manage your mail and packages with an app for iPhone or Android, or online. You can request to open and scan, forward, shred, discard or pick up mail with just a few clicks. At many locations, you can even deposit a check by mail.

How iPostal1 is Different vs. Anytime Mailbox

  1. Honest advertising. Anytime advertises a mailbox price on their home page starting at $6.99 per month, but good luck finding the one location that might offer this price - and who knows how many mail items per month are included, or what services are offered at what price. iPostal1 advertises a monthly price starting at $9.99, available at close to 3,250 locations, that comes with 30 mail items per month and access to all services and features at the prices posted on our website.

  2. More addresses. There are over 3,250 real street addresses in the iPostal1 network at professional pack & ship stores and executive business centers in prestigious office buildings, with new ones added weekly. Anytime has about 1,317 address locations.
  3. Easier, simpler sign up. With iPostal1 you can choose your location and plan quickly and easily, with no worries about the fine print, because every iPostal1 location offers the same plans and the same service features. To sign up, you just have to answer two questions: how much mail you expect to receive per month and do you want a plan that includes phone and fax. With Anytime, plans, benefits, and services offered can vary from location to location, with fees for services buried in the details.
  4. More mail forwarding features. iPostal1 shows real-time shipping prices, so you can choose the carrier and level of service that best meets your needs and budget. No surprises and no guessing what it will cost to forward packages or mail. You can also consolidate multiple letters into one larger envelope or several packages into one box to save on shipping. Anytime does not show shipping prices and does not offer consolidation.
  5. Plans with local phone and fax. iPostal1 Virtual Office plans, for as low as $39.99 per month, that come with Digital Mailbox plus local or toll-free phone and fax number, to create a complete virtual office presence in 3,250 locations across the country. Get phone forwarding, digital voice mail messaging, and faxes delivered as PDF documents right to your Digital Mailbox. Anytime Mailbox does not offer anything like this.
