Looks like MyPostalMail opened its online US postal mail service to the military / Armed Forces people today. If I am not mistaken, previously, you had to contact them first. I am not a military member, so I didn’t bother to check if they really did offer that account. Today proves that they do.
Accessing the military is an interesting proposition. From the soldier’s perspective, they can continue to receive mail while they’re away from home, IF they have a home to begin with. Many young soldiers don’t even have a permanent location when they are on duty; their homes are likely apartments that they move out of. Family and friends who want to send them mail will have to mail it to an AFO/APO location. This takes more time and wastes more gas.
Serving the military community not only helps the soldiers but also saves the environment. Reducing mail forwarding and physical mail delivery to military locations around the world will conserve energy. This is a great idea in my head and a win-win situation for everyone involved.
You can check more on their military mailbox accounts on their pricing page. Unlimited mail scanning and page scanning is a pretty sweet deal. But it looks like only US Armed Forces on active duty are accepted.
