Finding a PO Box Only a Click Away

Locations, Availability and Fees Now Available at usps.com

WASHINGTON, DC — They’re affordable, convenient and secure. Now finding one has never been easier.

U.S. Postal Service Post Office Boxes now can be found online at usps.com/poboxes. The new, online locator feature allows customers to find box availability, sizes and fees, as well as addresses, phone and fax numbers for each Post Office listed with available PO Boxes.

PO Boxes are as secure as mailboxes but provide more flexibility for mail pickup. The convenience of earlier mail delivery is helpful to small business owners. Boxes provide home-based businesses with the ability to separate business and personal mail.

“Many people have discovered that Post Office Box service is a safe, convenient way to receive their mail,” said Pat Donahoe, Deputy Postmaster General. “Boxes allow customers to choose a location that’s close to either home or work. You hold the key to convenience with a PO Box.”

Five box sizes are available. Fees are based on a six-month term and determined by box size. Many Post Office Box lobbies have extended hours and are open 24 hours a day.

Interested customers should log on to usps.com/poboxes and click on “Locate a Post Office Box” on the right-hand side of the page. Boxes can be found by inserting either a ZIP Code or street address. One more click will list PO Box lobby hours.

Customers visiting Post Offices will see blue display tags in PO Box lobbies identifying boxes available for rent. Questions can be answered by a retail associate.
