123 Main Street
#98776
Anycity, ST 27888

Personally, I am a single parent and I do not want my home information all over the web if I can help it. I did find it online one time and I worked to change that as quickly as possible.

At least using the USPS way helps you to keep from incurring additional fees. Mailboxes etc was EXTREMELY convenient for me (basically across the street) but it was a bit costly! I can drive two miles to get my PO box mail and save the diffference.
I did not know about the postal service offering a street address. I will definitely look into that. Thanks.

I hadn't considered this before but I agree that a PO Box sounds great. I hated the idea of posting my address online. Forwarding everything to my house is a great idea. Thanks ladies.

I have a PO box because I didn't want my personal address listed. If clients ask, I remind them my business is VIRTUAL so I don't need a physical address.

This also gives me the option of traveling and still getting my mail forwarded (if necessary). I have spent a lot of time in Missouri over the last 3 months and had my mail forwarded for the 3 weeks i was there in May. It saved me a lot of grief getting my bills on time and not worrying about what was sitting in my box.
