Organize your mail and eliminate clutter with a virtual mailbox

Most households and businesses in the United States receive hundreds of pieces of mail a year. Junk mail makes up more than half of that, but what remains can often be important. Legal documents, check payments, insurance, tax, and banking forms all typically come in the mail.

Once those papers are in your home or office, you need to organize them so it doesn’t turn into clutter. Ever lost an important piece of mail amid stacks of paper all over your house? A virtual mailbox can keep that headache from happening. 

Virtual mailboxes contain scanned copies of physical mail sent to an address you select. You can then access those scans from your computer, tablet, or phone—anywhere, anytime. Virtual mailboxes can be useful for remote businesses, people who travel often, live abroad, or those who don’t want to have to handle physical mail again.

How virtual mailboxes help you focus only on important mail. 

There’s nothing worse than checking the mailbox and seeing the piles of mail that you’ll have to sort through. To decrease that clutter, you need a system.  Thanks to virtual mailboxes, managing that mail doesn’t have to involve sorting through a giant pile of envelopes.
