📦 How Does Mail Storage Work?
PostScan Mail offers a convenient storage system for your incoming mail and packages. Each item is eligible for a free storage period beginning the day it is uploaded to your virtual mailbox.
⏳ Free Storage Periods
- Envelopes, postcards, and magazines: 30 days free
- Packages: 7 days free
The storage clock starts from the upload date to your mailbox, not the day it was delivered to the facility.
💵 Storage Fees After Free Period
Once the free storage period ends, fees begin to apply:
- $0.05 per mail item, per day (envelopes, postcards, or magazines)
- $0.10 per pound, per day (packages)
These charges will continue to accrue until the item is:
- Picked up in person (where available), or
- Shipped, recycled, or shredded through your PostScan Mail account
