What a PMB solves

Give important mail a stable Charlotte destination

Missed deliveries, frequent travel, changing work locations, and a home address printed on business correspondence can make mail feel harder to manage than it should. A private mailbox gives you an assigned PMB number at a staffed commercial mail receiving location.

Your address uses a street-style format. Mailbox customers can receive packages from all carriers subject to the signed agreement and current package policies, choose text or email arrival notifications, call to check for mail, and arrange paid forwarding.

With Secure Cabinet, staff hold your mail in a secure cabinet and retrieve it during regular counter hours. It is not a scanning or online-mailbox service. Choose a physical mailbox instead when 24-hour access to an assigned box matters. Staffed help and package pickup follow counter hours for both options.

What to prepare

USPS Form 1583 and two IDs

Each adult applicant generally completes a separate Form 1583 and presents one current government-issued photo ID plus a different current ID that verifies the physical address. Business recipients and authorized additional recipients must also be properly documented.

The signature is witnessed in the physical or authorized real-time audio/video presence of the CMRA’s owner, manager, or authorized employee, or acknowledged before a U.S.-commissioned notary. Requirements can change, so call before visiting.

This website does not accept identification documents or completed USPS forms. See every mailbox-opening step.

Private mailbox FAQ

Questions people ask before signup

What is a private mailbox?

A private mailbox, or PMB, gives you an assigned mailbox number at a commercial mail receiving location. You receive a street-style mailing address and pick up mail locally under the terms of your signed mailbox agreement.

What is the difference between Secure Cabinet and a physical mailbox?

With Secure Cabinet, staff hold your mail in a secure cabinet and retrieve it for you during regular counter hours. It is the lower-cost option and does not include scanning, an online portal, or 24-hour self-service access. A physical mailbox gives you an assigned box that you can access 24 hours a day. Staffed help and package pickup follow posted counter hours for both options.

Can I use the address for my business?

A private mailbox can help separate business mail from a home address and present a consistent Charlotte mailing address. Whether an agency, bank, marketplace, insurer, licensing authority, or other institution accepts it for a particular purpose is that organization’s decision. Verify before relying on the address.

How much does a Charlotte mailbox cost?

Small personal service starts at $179 total upfront for six months of Secure Cabinet ($144 rental + $35 initial setup), or $215 for a physical mailbox ($180 rental + $35 initial setup). No tax or key deposit is added to these mailbox prices. Medium and Large business plans and twelve-month terms are also available. Monthly figures are equivalents only, not monthly payment options. Optional paid forwarding is quoted individually.

Is there a setup fee?

A $35 initial setup fee applies in addition to the selected rental term on standard plans. A published special offer may waive that fee under its stated terms. The rental term is paid in full upfront. There is no tax or key deposit, and no additional renewal fee.

How quickly can I open a mailbox?

Timing depends on current availability and completion of the required agreement, Form 1583, identification review, and any business-recipient documentation. Call first to confirm availability and what to bring.
