There are several low-cost ways to obtain a unique business address. Most sole proprietors and small businesses just starting out do not have a unique address for their business. This makes sense to save money and keep it simple.
Benefits of a Private Business Mail Box or PO Box
- Conveys a more professional image.
- Peace of mind in knowing that your home address is not easily accessible to your business clients.
- Receiving your business mail in a secure location can also prevent accidental misplacement of important business mail by others in your household who may bring in the mail.
- Important documents or checks are received securely and can't be stolen from your home mailbox
- No need to be home when packages requiring a signature are delivered,
- Your business address remains the same even if you move.
- Ebay, Etsy, Amazon and E-Commerce sellers can use the PO Box or private mail box address as the return address when they send out packages, keeping your home information private.
Check out a Few Business Address Options:
U.S. Postal Service - Fees range based on mailbox size and location. $20-$600 for six months of service. *If you have an LLC or a corporation, be sure to ask the postal service for a real address rather than a P.O. box. For registration purposes, a business address must be a legally valid address—that is, a physical address.
UPS - Allows you 24-hour access to your mail, offers a real, legal street address and accepts packages from all carriers. It will also hold your mail and forward it to other addresses. Contact your neighborhood UPS office for exact prices.
