Mailbox Rental in San Diego, CA 92109
Private, Secure, and Convenient
More and more individuals, families, and small businesses are opting to rent a private mailbox.
- Small Business Owners. Many of our mailbox customers run their businesses from their home. Not only does a private mailbox (PMB) provide a professional commercial address, but it also provides privacy and confidentiality for all of your interactions with clients and customers. Plus, you can receive mail for multiple business names in one box.
- Students and Beach Locals. For students and beach afficianados, living at the beach can mean frequent moves to a new apartment or house—and often having your mail get mixed up with random roommates. With our mailboxes, you get privacy and the flexibity to get your important mail consistently, no matter how many times you move. We welcome international students!
- Frequent Travelers. If you travel or work or for pleasure, a private mailbox is perfect for your needs. No need to put in a temporary change-of-address or ask your neighbors to check for mail and packages. We can forward packages anywhere. And you can ship your exotic finds back to PB and we will keep them safe until you get home. Also consider our Virtual Mailbox Service where we scan and email you all of your mail for you to read on an easy-to-use website.
- Online Shoppers. Everyone is ordering more online, which means MORE PACKAGES! UPS, FedEx, DHL and the U.S. Postal Service often leave packages at your front door—making it easy for thieves to steal. Or, they require a signature and you're not at home. With a private mailbox, we sign for and securely store packages until you come to pick them up. Or, opt for our PackageSafe™ Package Receiving service if you just need us to receive packages, not mail.
