Mail forwarding service recommendation?
January 20, 2015 6:17 AM   Subscribe

Doesn't have to be within the US. Send from: Location A -> mail forwarding company -> location B

I would like to use it have business documents forwarded...
And I would not want them ruined, messed with, or lost.

Too bad reputable / major companies like Fedex (or even USPS) don't offer this feature :(

I've read places like MyUs, Stackry, Shipito exist but I had a bad experience with a similar company before + I find bad reviews about them :<

My local UPS store offers mail forwarding. Price varies based on how much is being forwarded and frequency (e.g., weekly bundles, monthly bundles, etc). I'm sure the other UPS stores do the same. I've never used that service, I just get most mail and nearly every package there.

> I assume you want be the originating location, and have your location hidden from the receiver? This is trickier because of the potential for mail fraud/abuse that a lot of businesses aren't willing to take chances on.

I think if you're doing the sending and want someone else to re-send it for you, that's called remailing. Rapid Remailing is one such company (from a quick Google search).

If you could clarify if you want mail forwarding (any place does this) or remailing, that would narrow things down a lot.

There are a number of services (like Earth Class Mail, which I have not used) that will receive mail for you, scan it, and allow you to access the scans offline. If you want or need the original item, they'll reship it to you. This might be helpful if your primarily receive business letters, as you may not even need the physical copies for most purposes.

It would be helpful to know what countries you're talking about. Where do you receive mail from? Where are you?

I just don't want the sender to know my address.
