Hi,
Does anyone know if we can redirect our mail from our current address which will soon to be our previous address to a mail PO box where we can pick it up on a weekly basis.
I know you can redirect mail to another address, but not sure if you can to a PO BOX.
Thanks for any help

Yes you can. We redirected my partners mail from her old house to a PO box for a couple of years.

Re: Auspost
Yep, I called them today, sounds quite a good deal actually. Our post gets found all over the road on a windy day. A $300 phone bought off eBay left laying on the grass verge, fell out of the letter box...But only in Australia, well Ascot, no one stole it, still there after five hours. In the UK, some hoody would have legged it with it.

Good luck with the P O box - it is a reasonable deal, just annoys me that I have to do it. I so miss having a letterbox in my front door!

The Triffid is a cracking venue!
I also use a redirect to PO Box - find it really convenient and inexpensive.

I've just redirected my mail from 1 PO box to another closer to where I live and I only kept the redirection going for 6 months until all mail went to my new PO box.

Re: Auspost
Why keep on paying for a redirect just inform everyone that your postal address is your PO box and after about 6 months no real mail should be coming to your home it should all be using your PO box.

I do think about it each year, but there is a large amount of mail that still keeps coming with the yellow redirected sticker on even though I've given them the P O Box. Like a lot of things here I just pay up for them for a quiet life.

"But only in Australia, well Ascot, no one stole it, still there after five hours. In the UK, some hoody would have legged it with it" I take offense at that, we have plenty of items left on our doorstep here and we have not had them taken.
