Have Us Receive Your Mail in San Francisco for Processing into a Earth Class Mail™ Account

The vast majority of our clients soon realize that in an online world, the physical address where their postal mail is sent really doesn't matter. That's part of the freedom you get from Earth Class Mail. However, if you still need a local address we offer an industry-leading 16 reception points (compare PO Boxes vs. Street Addresses) for mail you want to have processed through Earth Class Mail online postal mail.

Most of our pricing plans allow you to choose more than one Remote Address. Enterprises may use their own addresses as well.

* Our 24-hour central processing facility is located in Oregon. For the fastest and most economical service, we recommend making at least one of your Remote Addresses the Portland P.O. Box or the Beaverton street address.

** Earth Class Mail helps to reduce your handling of unsolicited mail, and soon we'll enable you to instantly notify mailers that you desire that they unsubscribe you. In this column, however, we list only the effect of the address itself: many direct (i.e., bulk or so-called "junk") mailers avoid using addresses with PO Boxes because response rates from PO Box holders are generally lower. So when you do business with companies that may rent out their mailing lists, if you want to reduce the amount of unsolicited advertising mail you receive, list one of our PO Box addresses instead of our street address.
