How Long Do You Store My Mail?
We store your mail for free for 90 days, ensuring you have enough time to manage, review, or request forwarding. After the 90-day mail storage period, we shred physical mail for security. However, you can always access digital copies in your dashboard indefinitely.
How Long Is Mail Stored in a Virtual Mailbox?
Your mail storage period lasts 90 days, during which you can:
- View and organize your mail online from anywhere.
- Request mail forwarding to any location worldwide.
- Choose to have mail shredded if no longer needed.
If you need a physical document after 90 days, be sure to submit a forwarding request before the storage period ends.
What Happens After the 90-Day Mail Storage Period?
Once the mail retention period reaches 90 days:
- The physical mail is securely shredded to protect your privacy.
- The digital copies remain available in your dashboard permanently.
Since digital copies stay accessible, you can always retrieve important documents even after physical shredding.
Why Does Mail Storage Have a 90-Day Limit?
Our 90-day mail storage policy ensures efficient mail management while keeping costs low. Because storing physical mail requires space and resources, this time frame balances affordability and convenience. Meanwhile, permanent access to scanned copies ensures you never lose essential documents.
How to Ensure You Don’t Lose Important Mail
To prevent losing important mail, you should:
- Check your virtual mailbox regularly to stay updated.
- Submit mail forwarding requests before the storage period ends.
- Download and save digital copies of essential documents.

If you need to store mail beyond 90 days, consider these options:
- Request mail forwarding before your storage period expires.
- Save and back up digital copies for long-term access.
- Contact support for alternative storage solutions, if available.
