Mail forwarding
Forward the mail you need, when you need it

- Scan before you ship
- Consolidation where available
- Tracking on every shipment
- Receive mail at your chosen address
- Select the items to forward
- Choose destination, carrier, and speed
Why forwarding matters
The value is not just shipping. It is the ability to decide what should move, what should be scanned, and what can stay put.
See what arrived before paying to ship everything
Envelope visibility and scan requests help you forward only the pieces that are worth the cost and time.
Forward domestically or internationally from the same mailbox workflow
PostalBridge supports the customer who travels, relocates, or splits time between multiple addresses.
Use forwarding as a routine part of mail operations instead of a last-minute rescue
Because forwarding is built into the mailbox workflow, it is easier to batch requests and manage timing intentionally.
Forwarding works best when it is tied to the mailbox itself
PostalBridge forwarding is handled by the same partner location receiving the mail, which keeps the chain of custody clearer and the workflow simpler.
- The location receiving your mail is the same location handling scans, approvals, and forwarding requests.
- Tracking and shipment details remain tied to the mailbox history so you can see what happened later.
- Some locations support consolidation and pickup alongside forwarding, depending on the plan.
How forwarding works
Most customers review mail first, then request forwarding for the originals they actually need.
Review the inbox
Check envelope photos and request scans for items you want to inspect first.
Create the shipment
Choose the destination, carrier, service speed, and any location-specific options.
Track delivery
Follow the shipment with tracking and keep the mail history attached to your account.
Forwarding workflows PostalBridge supports
These are the cases the service is built around.
Business travel and relocation
Keep one mailbox while shipments move to your current office, home, or temporary location.
Package forwarding from your mailbox address
Send packages onward from the partner location when that plan and shipment are supported.
Scan first, ship later
Read what matters online first so you do not ship paper you never needed.
International destinations
Many locations support international forwarding, subject to carrier and destination rules.
What affects forwarding cost and timing
These are the practical variables that matter most.
- Carrier speed, destination, package size, and insurance choices affect total cost.
- Some locations offer consolidation or reduced handling on higher-tier plans.
- International shipments may have customs or carrier restrictions depending on the contents.
- The exact forwarding menu depends on the mail center and plan you choose.
