Box Rental Use
The customer agrees during the rental term of this agreement to use the rented mailbox ONLY for lawful purposes and in conformation with all applicable federal, state, and local laws. The applicant also agrees to protect, indemnify, and save harmless Postal Unlimited® from and against any and all claims, demands, and causes of action of any nature whatsoever, and any expense incidental to defense by Postal Unlimited® of any such demand or action arising out of or in connection with applicant’s use or possession of said postal box. This includes demands, claims, and causes of action for personal injury or property damage arising from such use or possession, failure of the postal service to deliver on time or otherwise any item (mail, parcels, etc.), damage to or loss of postal box contents by any cause whatsoever, and for any violation by the applicant of applicable federal, state, or local laws.
In addition, the applicant agrees that upon default in payment required by this rental agreement, Postal Unlimited® may, at its option, as security for rent owed, withhold or refuse the applicant’s mail during the period of default, and should the default continue, may withhold mail indefinitely or return mail to the sender.
Mail Forwarding
To ensure smooth mail forwarding services, it is necessary for us to have your updated address on file along with the required minimum deposit. You have the option to choose a higher deposit amount, but it should be in multiples of the minimum required amount. For instance, if the minimum deposit is $50 and your forward request is $98, you would need to make three deposits of $50 each, covering the $98 total and leaving a remaining balance of $52 for any additional mail forwarding needs. In case of a one-time use, two deposits of $50 would be required, resulting in a $2 credit which will be held for any future mail forwarding transactions.
The mail forwarding balance is used as a prepaid account, and we charge to this available balance each time we forward your mail at your request. You will be charged for shipping, labor, service, and materials used for each transaction. You may opt-in for automatic billing to recharge it or choose to pay your invoice which would be due when your balance reaches below a $25 threshold. You can turn automatic billing off anytime and add to it anytime. You must contact Postal Unlimited® when you would like your mail forwarded.
If your mailbox is not current, please note that your mail will not be forwarded, and any funds in the mail forwarding account will be held until your mailbox dues are current. It is important to ensure that your mailbox usage is kept current and compliant to avoid any interruptions in mail forwarding services. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
Shipping & Freight
Postal Unlimited® agrees to ship all packages, freight, vehicles, and/or mail for the customer in accordance with all applicable transportation rules and regulations. We strive to ensure that your transport services are shipped safely and efficiently. However, Postal Unlimited® shall not be held liable for any damages or loss of any kind, including but not limited to damage to the items being shipped, damage to property or persons, or any other loss or damage resulting from the shipment or freight of any item.
Cancellation Policy
Cancellations are to be done in writing and act as a 30-day notice to vacate the mailbox. In order to cancel your Postal Unlimited® service, it is necessary to comply with the following conditions:
1. All keys provided for mailbox or facility access must be promptly returned to Postal Unlimited® 30-days (one month) prior to billing.
2. You are required to submit a written notice of cancellation one month prior to the next billing cycle.
3. Ensure your mail is no longer coming into our store. Please complete an address change with USPS UPS FedEx and update your senders. If you continue to come in to collect mail or call in for services regarding your account past your due date, you will be responsible for paying for that interval.
We recommend when you cancel to turn in the keys immediately to avoid losing your keys and being subjected to paying the rekey fees. Additionally, it is essential to update your address information with Postal Unlimited® by providing notice of your new address within the specified timeframe. You are responsible to change your address to your new address. We can process RTS, return to sender, as long as all conditions are met. Please be aware that failure to meet these conditions may result in additional fees and/or collections. Your cooperation in meeting these requirements is greatly appreciated.
So to ensure a smooth cancellation process and to avoid any inconvenience, it is imperative that all keys provided for mailbox or facility access are returned to 30-days prior to your billing date. This policy is in place to prevent the need for follow-up and to safeguard against lost keys. It also acts as a safety precaution.
Please note that if the keys are not returned promptly, you will be held responsible for the current rekey fee. Kindly remember that mailbox rentals cannot be offered to new customers without the return of keys from the previous renter.
Recurring Billing Authorization
We understand that life can be busy and that it’s important to have reliable services that can make your life easier. All billing occurs on the first day of the month or earlier if in fact the first falls on a weekend or holiday. To make things more convenient for our customers, recurring billing is scheduled for automatic withdrawals at the interval requested, and may change during admin overrides, special rates ending, proper requests, or other.
Billing
We want to clarify our billing policy. We do not offer a pay-forward service, meaning any payments made before the first of the month will only be considered for the first of the same month. We do not prorate forward; instead, we prorate backward based on the specific service period.
For instance, if you initiate a payment on March 3rd, your service start date would be March 1st. Similarly, if you initiate payment on March 30th, your service start date would still be March 1st. In the event you chose a 3-month interval and initiated payment on March 15th, your start date would be March 1st and your next due date would be on June 1st.
Using this example, if you chose to cancel services, it would have to be initiated 30-days prior to your next due date. Example: If your next scheduled due date is June 1st, your written cancellation notice, keys return, and address change must be completed no later than May 1st.
By following this prorating method, we ensure fair and consistent billing practices, aligning payment periods with actual service usage. We appreciate your understanding and adherence to these terms.
Same goes for if you wish to change your recurring billing. You must contact Postal Unlimited® 30-days prior to your scheduled recurring billing. If termination of services or your cancellation request is made within the 30-day timeframe prior to the scheduled recurring billing, there will be no proration or refunds of any services and we charge to the payment method on file. Each recurring billing covers your selected term, and while active, it cannot be rented to another individual. Cancel requests and other changes must be done in advance.
Limitation of Liability
Postal Unlimited® is committed to providing quality services, but there are some limitations to our liability. We shall not be liable for any damage or loss of any kind, including but not limited to damage to the items being shipped, damage to property or persons, or any other loss or damage resulting from the use of our mailbox rental and other services. The customer agrees that Postal Unlimited® shall not be held responsible for any damages or losses that occur during the shipping process, or as a result of the use of our services, including but not limited to late deliveries, lost or stolen mail, or damaged packages.
General Terms
We believe in providing quality services, and we take the security and privacy of our customers very seriously.
