Premium Forwarding Service (PFS) is designed for individuals who need their mail sent to a temporary address, often during an extended absence such as relocation or seasonal travel. This service reships and reroutes all mail weekly to the designated temporary address, ensuring that customers receive their correspondence regularly without delay.

Choosing PFS allows customers to manage their mail effectively while away, as it streamlines the process of receiving all types of mail, including packages and letters, rather than just specific categories or types of correspondence. This is especially beneficial for those who do not want to miss any important deliveries during their absence.

Other options, such as resending essential documents only, temporary mail holding, or providing extra-large mailboxes, do not encompass the full scope of what PFS offers, which includes the comprehensive weekly reshipment of all mail. This highlights the uniqueness and utility of the Premium Forwarding Service for customers needing consistent mail delivery while away from their primary address.
