Default Post redirection
We live in the UK and the Villages. We usually spend 6 months in the Villages (though with the recession this year we may only afford just over 4)!

Anyway, we go along to the Post Office (usually the one near Lake Griffin Road on 27/441) and complete a form there. They used to have the forms out on display which we would complete when we were waiting in line, but now they don't - you have to ask for them at the counter.

All our mail that would normally go to our house in the Villages gets redirected to the U.K.completely free of charge.

We used to do this originally by getting in touch with Jane's Outpost in The Villages - give them a call they should be able to help you. We certainly haven't paid any cash out for this service - it's great.

About a week before we come back out to the Villages we give Jane's Outpost a call and they cancel the redirection for us so that our mail is there when we arrive.
