Taking Vacation?
You spent months planning the perfect vacation and the time has finally come. The bags are packed, the car is loaded, and the dog’s in the kennel. At the last minute you remember you haven’t asked the Post Office to hold your mail while you’re away. Well, just run back into the house, fire up your PC and get the job done. The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) now offers customers the option of requesting that their mail be held from 3 to 30 days quickly and easily online, at http://www.usps.com. “When you go on vacation, the last thing you need is to be concerned about the safety of your mail while you’re away — our Hold Mail Service addresses this issue almost effortlessly,” said Francia G. Smith, USPS vice president and Consumer Advocate. “This service represents our continued commitment to increasing customer access — making it easier and more convenient for customers to use the Postal Service when and where they need to.” Onc
