Businesses often wonder why they should get a Post Office Box in the first place, the question that they ask themselves is why not have all of my mail delivered directly to my street address? So the team here at Everyday Mail thought that we would collect some of the main reasons that we have heard from our customers over the past few years.
1) Delivery times – when the sorting is completed by the Post office in the morning (usually between 6:30-7:30am the mail either goes in one of two directions. One way is that it is placed in one of the PO Boxes ready for the customer to collect or else it is given to one of the Posties that your see around either on foot or motor bikes to deliver to your street address. The issue for customers here is that the time that the street addressed mail is delivered completely depends on where you fit in the postie’s run and for many businesses this may be late morning or worse after lunch which does not fit in with their business requirement. So many businesses opt to have to seek out a Post Office Box Rental so they can access their important documents as early as possible.
2) Image – Another reason for many smaller businesses to take up a Post Office Box Rental is to portray a larger business image to their customers rather than advertising that they are a home based business.
3) Security – This, along with delivery times above is the major reason why businesses opt for a Post Office Box Rental. They are concerned about the postie leaving letters at the front door of their offices or in a mail box down in the basement of their building. So if you are dealing with sensitive and confidential information in your day to day operations, this should be a key concern for you.
So there you have it, the top 3 reasons that customers opt to rent a Post Office Box. At Everyday Mail we work together with our customers to bring them all of these benefits, without the drawback of having to send an employee down to the post office each morning to collect the mail so why not give us a call today on 1300 624 562 to discuss your requirements.
