    u p s s t o r e mailbox service

    I don't want to receive my "supps" at my home or office. The u p s s t o r e offers a mailbox service, but they want 2 forms of i.d. and a good bit of doh up front. I need a better option any thoughts thanks

    But you also will sign a form saying they don't know who you are and can not give out your info

    The forms you file out with ID get filed with USPS

    I use a private mailbox center, there are plenty of them around. The're less stringent than P.O. or Ups.

    Use a real post office. It's a lot cheaper and the USPS needs a warrant to open your mail. UPS can open your mail whenever they want for any reason.

    UPS, Mailboxes etc, fedex, etc are all private carriers. If they have any reason to think something is fishy with your package they can open it. This has been discussed a lot on another board.

    There are all kinds of things discussed on the various boards, at least half of it is rumor and pure bull$^!t. Until I read it in an official document there is no way I am going to believe that employees of the UPS store have the right to open US Mail. Perhaps a package sent via their service, but as far as the regular mail that arrives to the mail boxes they rent, it is no different than the mail you receive at your house.
