Look carefully at your closing statement. $150 bucks is charged. They call it maintenance

We moved here a year ago, we had our mail held in Michigan until we closed here and then did a change of address with our new address and our mail was forwarded to our new address once the change of address was initiated. It was done online and We had very few issues during the transition.

If you already closed, you paid a lump sum for the mailbox. Mail service here is horrible, more horrible than some other places, if that is possible.

P Box
A PO Box is assigned to every address in TV. If you are renting then you should -agree with the owner as to whether you can use the box while here. If not, there are ship it services that will rent you a box. If you are the owner then the box and keys are assigned to you. Be aware the location of the box at the postal station (high, low, around the corner of the station) is already assigned. If you are short and the preassigned box is on the top row, you will not be happy and there are no reported occurrences of being able to change it. There is a one time fee charged when you take ownership of the home. When you buy another home you will pay another one time fee, and so on.

When we moved here 1.5 years ago we were able to get the key to our new mailbox after we did the design of our home. This enabled us to change our address permanently almost 3 months before we closed. We used this mailbox while we were renting and it worked out great.

bought in january and the first amenity bill listed a $49. fee. received the second bill which listed a $100. fee, both under PO STN FEE. not sure why it was divided into two payments… to lessen the shock? so i think the $150. mentioned above is legit.

Ou have a mail box assigned. Should have been told when you close. Forwarding mail is the same as always. Change of address form at PO.

It’s very simple, I did it. Until you close on your home, I called one of the many UPS offices in the Villages I gave them my credit card number and had the box for 3 mos. The nice thing about the UPS office is that your forwarding address is the UPS office address, not a PO Box address. For instance if the address of the UPS office is 123 SPRING ROAD, The Villages, FL, your address would be 123 Spring Road #142, THE VILLAGES, Fl 32159. The 142 represents your box number. Good luck

So once you have your mailbox, what happens if you order something from Amazon and it comes in a large box? Do you get a notice in your mailbox that you have a package and to go somewhere else to pick it up?

Correct. You’ll get a key to a parcel locker at your postal station

We just closed in January 2021 and there was a 190 fee for postal station on our first utility bill. I called to inquire and was told it was a one-time fee to take care of the station. - Yes, it was 190, not 150.

Guess they decided that if people would pay 150 why not ask for more
