Digital mailboxes.
Get all your mail digital instead
Using Digital Mailboxes in the UK
A digital mailbox is like having your own personal post office on the internet. Here’s how you can use one:
- Sign Up: First, you need to choose a digital mailbox service and sign up. Some popular options in the UK include UKPostBox and MyUKMailBox1.
- Get an Address: Once you sign up, you’ll be given a physical address in the UK. This is where all your mail will be sent.
- Receive Mail: When mail arrives at your new address, the service will scan the envelope and send you an email notification.
- View Your Mail: You can log in to your digital mailbox account online to see the scanned images of your mail. If it’s something important, you can ask the service to open it and scan the contents for you.
- Manage Your Mail: You can choose to have the mail forwarded to your home, stored, or even shredded if it’s junk.
