Default po box help

I am considering renting a po box for purchases. couple questions. does the name the po box is registered under matter since obviously I cant use this on stealth. also there are different size boxes to rent, the bigger ones being much more expensive. some of the boxes i will be receiving are large. how does this work? does a rep hold these up front for me?

Well at the local usps where I got my po box, they let you add a second person for reference who may get packages as well, just add another name to the po box besides yours and you should be ok. Mine is a small po box and when I get larger packages they just leave me a pick up notice so I can pick it up at the front.

Do fees vary by location for PO Boxes?

It should be the same price on all usps post office, I pay $100 for 1 year.

https://poboxes.usps.com/poboxonline...landingPage.do

Do a search and it should tell you whats near you and the prices as well.

I don't know where but near my location there is one that is for $84 a year but I don't know if that is a private site for po box, for sure it is not on a usps post office.

Also, Im not 100% sure if they make you get a bigger po box, I only have gotten back large packages like twice. Maybe if you get bigger packages a couple of times during the week they make you get one, not sure about that.

Don't need a large pobox unless you are receiving tons of non-registered mail. The small ones work fine - notice card will be left if you have a package to receive.
