Keep the envelope with the letter

VPM has an optional setting to download the envelope image and scanned contents together in one PDF. Requested scans still use the selected plan’s allowance.

Request useful contents → keep a downloaded PDF → decide separately about the paper.

Optional autoscan queues eligible letters, excluding packages and bundles. Manual requests control allowance use; PDF email notifications can collect completed scans.

With an ordinary mailbox, choose wanted originals to ship. Combined parcels are normally repacked; request special handling if original packaging matters. Handling and postage are extra.

Staff sign for supported facility deliveries; confirm Restricted Delivery authorization first. Receipt is separate from forwarding. For pickup or private staff access, compare another option.

Before you choose

Paper, scans and deletion

Archive keeps a scan but shreds the paper. Keep wanted originals out of that action.

Check this product’s separate clocks

VPM ordinary mailbox

The ordinary-mail clock begins when an item arrives in the account. Request a paid extension before expiry; the help describes 30-day blocks, normally up to 180 days total. Perishables have a separate seven-day limit.

Archive shreds the physical item and retains its digital copy. Trash also shreds paper and removes the scan; its digital Trash folder is cleared after 30 days or when emptied. Digital Trash is not a paper-recovery window.

Do not Archive an original you still need. Check downloaded pages before requesting irreversible disposal. Expired-item retrieval is not guaranteed; do not plan around an older help article’s possible recovery attempt.

Who can receive and manage mail?

Receiving names do not buy separate logins. Added users may have owner-equivalent access; private separation is not established. Each personal adult needs current authorization.

Account routes, authorization sources and review dates

Receiving names and authorization

VPM ordinary mailbox

Extra recipients may share one login; a receiving name does not buy a separate account. VPM’s account guide describes separate mailbox accounts for separate logins. Its secondary-user help describes manually added users with owner-equivalent mailbox access. Confirm which route the selected plan permits; neither establishes privacy from the primary holder. Register business names for routing. The older recipient article’s primary-holder-only form wording must not replace current USPS requirements for each personal adult.

Extra recipients versus separate accounts · Recipient list and older form wording · Secondary-user access

Separate-account authorization: VPM’s separate-account guide explains the distinction. Separate accounts need their own authorization; its existing-customer notary exception is conditional, not a general setup-fee waiver. Confirm the actual account route and private-access requirements. Article updated June 27, 2026; checked October 21, 2026.

Ordinary mailbox disposal, storage extensions and post-close requests

Ordinary letter shredding is free. A requested letter or magazine storage extension costs $1.50 per item per 30-day block; this is not a calendar-month tariff. A shipment requested after closure adds a $20 service fee plus applicable postage and handling. Neither the extension nor the shipment fee is automatic; these ordinary mailbox facts do not establish TruResidence terms or a complete exit invoice.

TruResidence core prices and the annual comparison are withheld: Essentials and Premium+ prices have changed, and the retained standalone Premium plan needs availability confirmation. Check the current plan invoice, paid term and separate lease or usage charges before paying.

What does a lease add to the personal service?

It is optional and outside the core subscription. Ask for the specific plan and address, cash due now, later rent, any plan-specific processing fee, refundable deposit and utility charges. Monthly billing does not establish a monthly commitment. Published lease minimums and deposit rules conflict, so a complete lease total is held until the selected house and terms resolve them. A returned deposit is not an automatic price discount.

If the job is only remote mail
