Get a Virtual Mailing Address

A Virtual Mailing Address is a remote mailing address you use to receive personal or business mail, even though you don't live or work there. Your virtual address could be anywhere a third party is certified to receive your mail. PO Boxes with the USPS were the first-generation virtual mailing address, which was simply a PO box rental at your local post office.

Since the 1980's, mailbox stores have also offered mailbox rental. Now, the latest-generation virtual mailing addresses feature an added dimension: Digital Mailbox technology provided by companies like iPostal1, that enable you to view and manage your mail and packages from anywhere using a free app or going online. That's convenience!

While a mailing address used to be strictly local, now it's global, as iPostal1 lets you select from over 3,000 mailing addresses across the U.S. and abroad - all real street addresses at either professional shipping stores or shared workspaces in office buildings.

If you can answer yes to any of these questions, you need a Virtual Mailing Address:

• Do you come back from a business trip or vacation to find mail items that required immediate attention?
• Do you need a business address to upgrade your brand image, protect your privacy, or register your company?
• Do you want mail forwarding on a flexible basis to any address, when and how you prefer?
• Would you like to see the content of certain pieces of mail on the day it arrives, no matter where you are?
• Are you tired of driving to your PO Box to find out what mail you've received?
• Would you like to add mailing addresses quickly and easily, and manage mail for all addresses from one login?

Here are 10 of the many things you can do with a Virtual Mailing Address:
