About this listing

Hoover Mail Center is a mailbox center in Hoover, Alabama, renting private mailboxes at a real street address rather than a PO Box. Stores like this are normally registered with the Postal Service as commercial mail receiving agencies, which is the piece that lets staff sign for your mail and accept UPS and FedEx deliveries the Postal Service would not carry. Expect to complete USPS Form 1583 and show two forms of identification before a box is released to you. Ask what happens to parcels that arrive when you are away, and whether forwarding is priced per envelope or per pound.

Rents private mailboxes by the month or year and, in most cases, is registered with the Postal Service as a commercial mail receiving agency, which is what lets it sign for your mail and accept UPS and FedEx on your behalf.

Ask at the counter

Ask whether the box comes with a street address you can use, and whether the store is registered with the Postal Service as a CMRA. That is what decides if they can accept a UPS or FedEx parcel for you.
Ask what they do with a parcel that arrives while you are away, and for how long. Storage fees after five or seven days are common and rarely mentioned at signup.
Ask how forwarding is priced: a flat monthly fee, per envelope, or actual postage plus a handling charge. The three work out very differently over a year.
Bring two forms of ID to the signup. One has to carry a photograph, and both have to show your name.
