Texas Virtual Mailbox and Real Mailing Address

What is Circle 6 Maildrop?

Circle 6 Maildrop is a virtual mailbox and mail forwarding service designed for RVers, travelers, and anyone who needs a reliable Texas address. As a USPS-registered Commercial Mail Receiving Agency (CMRA), we’re authorized to receive mail on your behalf. Optional features like envelope scanning, forwarding, and destroying let you manage your mail from anywhere—on your terms and based on the plan you choose.

What is a Virtual Mailbox?

A virtual mailbox gives you a real street address where your mail and packages are received. You can view your incoming mail online, request scans, forward items to any address, or securely shred them—all from anywhere in the world.

Why choose a Texas mailing address?

Texas offers many benefits to RVers, travelers, small businesses and remote workers—including no state income tax and traveler-friendly policies. With Circle 6 Maildrop, you get a real Texas address (not a P.O. Box) suitable for establishing Texas Domicile to keep your life moving forward wherever you are.

Do I need to be a Texas resident to use Circle 6 Maildrop?

Nope! Whether you're crossing the country in an RV, working remotely from another state, living abroad, or simply running a small business, you can still use Circle 6 Maildrop. Anyone can enjoy the perks of a real Texas Domicile address—no state residency needed.

How do I get started?

It’s simple. Select a plan, upload a USPS Form 1583 and ID documents, and you're all set! We’ll get your new Texas address set up and ready to receive mail. THERE ARE NO SETUP FEES!

How secure is my information?

We take your privacy seriously. As a USPS-registered CMRA, we follow strict guidelines to protect your personal data and mail. All account and scan data is stored on secure, encrypted servers. Access to scanned images is restricted to authorized staff, and contents are only opened or scanned when you request it. We never share your information — ever.

Can more than one person receive mail under my account?

Yes. Each individual or business receiving mail must submit their own USPS Form 1583 and ID. Your account includes support for up to two individuals and one business name. Additional recipients can be added for a small monthly fee.

Can I receive business mail at my Circle 6 address?

Absolutely. Your account includes support for one business name and up to two individuals. We accept business mail—including IRS letters, state notices, certified mail, and legal documents — as well as packages from USPS, UPS, and FedEx. Each business must submit its own USPS Form 1583 and proper ID. If you need to register more than one business or receive mail for additional individuals, we offer that for a small monthly fee.

Do I need to fill out USPS Form 1583?

Yes. USPS requires Form 1583 for us to legally receive mail on your behalf as a Commercial Mail Receiving Agency (CMRA). The form must be notarized and submitted with two forms of ID. Currently, you'll need to get the form notarized locally, but we're working on offering online notary services soon to make this process even easier. After you sign up and choose a plan, you'll receive a secure link to upload the completed form and documents directly to our system.

Is this service legal and USPS-approved?

Yes. We’re a Commercial Mail Receiving Agency (CMRA), registered with USPS and fully authorized to receive and handle your mail.

What happens if I move or change plans?

Your address stays the same no matter where you go — perfect for full-time RVers, digital nomads, small businesses or anyone on the move. If your location changes, just log in to your dashboard to update your forwarding address and we’ll send your mail to wherever you are.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. You can cancel at any time from your dashboard. Your service will continue through the prepaid service time.

What happens to my mail after cancellation?

Once canceled, we’re required by USPS to forward your mail for up to six additional months — provided you maintain a sufficient balance in your postage and handling account. During this time, we forward all incoming mail once per week, including anything that may be considered junk. Please note: canceled accounts do not include mail sorting, scanning, or dashboard access — just basic forwarding. After the six-month period ends, any new mail will be returned to sender. Be sure to update your address with contacts before that time.

What types of mail won’t you accept?

We don’t accept hazardous materials, items requiring refrigeration, live animals, or anything illegal or restricted by carriers or postal regulations. Any prohibited items—especially perishables or live contents—will be returned to sender immediately. If you’re unsure whether something is allowed, feel free to ask us before shipping.

What if I need help with my account?

We’re here to help. If you have any questions or run into an issue, just send us an email at support@circle6maildrop.com. We’ll respond as quickly as possible — no long waits, no runaround.

Do you offer phone support?

We primarily handle support by email to keep things efficient and documented. But if something’s urgent, we’re happy to take your call.

Will I be notified when I get mail?

If your plan includes mail scanning, we’ll send you an email alert whenever First Class mail arrives, along with a scan of the envelope front. You can then log in to your dashboard to decide what to do next — forward it, request a scan of the contents, or have it securely destroyed (based on your plan details). Customers without a scanning plan can still request forwarding as needed.

How long does it take to see scanned mail?

If your plan includes scanning, we typically upload the front of each First Class envelope the same business day it arrives. You'll get an email alert right away. If you request a scan of the contents, that usually takes one additional business day to complete.

Can you scan the contents of my mail?

Yes—if your plan includes scanning, you can request a scan of the mail’s contents after reviewing the envelope image. We’ll securely open the envelope, scan the inside pages, and upload the file to your dashboard, usually within one business day.

Do you scan magazines or catalogs?

No, we don’t scan full magazines or catalogs due to their size, volume, and potential copyright restrictions. If you’d like to receive them, we recommend requesting forwarding.

Is there a limit to how many scans I can request?

Plans with scanning (Pull-Thru and Full Hookup) include up to 20 First Class envelope scans per month with email notifications. Additional envelope scans beyond 20 are charged at $0.50 each. Content scans (seeing what's inside your mail) are available anytime at $1.00 per page on these two plans as well. You stay in control of what gets scanned and when.

Do you ever open my mail without permission?

ABSOLUTELY NOT! — we never open your mail unless you specifically request a content scan. As a USPS-registered Commercial Mail Receiving Agency (CMRA), we’re legally authorized to receive mail on your behalf, but not to open it without your direction. Your privacy is protected not just by our internal policy, but by postal regulations and federal laws.

What happens to junk mail or unwanted items?

If your plan includes our SmartSort™ intelligent mail filtering service, we’ll filter out obvious junk — like presorted ads, bulk solicitations, and credit card offers — and discard those items without scanning or forwarding. This helps reduce clutter and unnecessary forwarding costs. All other mail is held for your review, and you decide what to scan, forward, or destroy. You’re always in control of your important mail.

What happens if my mail is lost or damaged?

While we do our best to handle all mail with care, Circle 6 Maildrop is not liable for mail lost or damaged by the postal service or by carriers such as UPS or FedEx. If you're expecting something valuable or time-sensitive, we recommend using a tracked or insured shipping method.

Can I receive prescription medication by mail?

Yes — we can receive mail-order prescriptions as long as they’re shipped by a licensed U.S. pharmacy, clearly labeled, and do not require refrigeration. If you’re expecting medication, we recommend requesting forwarding promptly to avoid delays or accidental discard or spoilage.

What happens if someone sends mail to the wrong name or address?

We can only receive and process mail for names and businesses that are listed and approved on your account with a valid Form 1583. Misaddressed mail or items for unknown recipients may be returned to sender or securely discarded.

Do you keep copies of scanned mail?

No. We do not retain scanned images after they’ve been delivered to your dashboard. Once you delete a scan or your account is closed, those files are permanently removed from our system.

Do you handle mail for minors or dependents?

We can receive and handle mail for minors or dependents, but the parent or legal guardian must provide documentation of guardianship and fill out a Form 1583 for each individual receiving mail. We'll handle the mail according to the same procedures as for adults, ensuring privacy and control for the parent or guardian.

Can I use this service for receiving government mail?

Yes, Circle 6 Maildrop can receive government mail, including IRS notices, Social Security communications, and other government documents. However, it’s your responsibility to check with specific government agencies to ensure they accept a CMRA address for their purposes.

Can I have my mail forwarded to me?

Yes — all Circle 6 Maildrop customers can request mail forwarding at any time. Just log in to your dashboard, enter the address you want it sent to, and we’ll take care of the rest. We forward mail as often as you request — whether that’s once a week, once a month, on a schedule you set, or on demand. Postage and handling fees are deducted from your prepaid account balance at the time of each shipment. NOTE: We will proactively ship to your forwarding address once your mailbox becomes physcically full.

How do I pay for mail forwarding?

Mail forwarding and content scanning fees are deducted from your prepaid account balance. You can add funds at any time through your dashboard using a credit or debit card — initial balances start at $50. We’ll notify you by email when your balance gets low, and you can view your full balance history anytime in your dashboard. It’s your responsibility to keep your account funded; if your balance falls to zero, we won’t be able to forward mail or perform content scans until additional funds are added. You can setup auto replenishment payments via the dashboard.

What happens if I don’t have enough funds for forwarding?

If your account balance isn’t sufficient to cover postage and handling, we’ll hold your mail and notify you by email. You can add funds anytime through your dashboard to resume forwarding or content scanning. Most mail is held for up to 30 days — after that, it will be securely destroyed. Packages are not stored and will be returned to sender immediately. In some cases, important items like government documents or checks may be held longer at our discretion to avoid accidental loss.

How often do you forward mail?

We forward mail whenever you request it but at least once per month. Some folks do it weekly, others monthly — it’s totally up to you. You control the schedule. NOTE: We will proactively forward mail to your forwarding address when your mailbox becomes full.

Can I choose which carrier you use for forwarding?

Yes. We use USPS by default for all forwarding, but you can request UPS or FedEx if you prefer. Please note that at this time, neither carrier picks up from our location, so we charge a $30 service fee to personally transport your package to the nearest drop-off location, which is about 50 miles round trip from our location. This is in addition to standard postage and handling costs, which are deducted from your prepaid balance. We are actively working with both carriers to establish regular pickup service at our address.

Can packages be sent to my Circle 6 address?

Yes. We accept packages from USPS, UPS, and FedEx, as long as they’re clearly labeled and meet our size and weight guidelines. We do not accept packages over 30 pounds — those are returned to sender immediately. Packages are stored for up to 10 days at no charge. After that, a $10 per-package per-month storage fee applies, for up to 3 additional months. Unclaimed packages beyond that window will be securely destroyed.

Can you forward packages along with my regular mail?

Yes — when you request forwarding, we’ll include any packages that have arrived and ship them together with your regular mail, unless you specify otherwise. We only forward packages upon request and if your prepaid balance can cover the cost. Packages are stored for up to 10 days at no charge. After that, a $10 per-package, per-month storage fee applies for up to 3 additional months. Any package left longer than that will be securely destroyed. We do not accept or store any package over 30 pounds—those are returned to sender immediately upon arrival.

Do you notify me when packages arrive?

Yes. When a package that meets our acceptance criteria arrives (under 30 lbs and properly labeled), we’ll send you an email notification so you know it’s here. You’ll also see it listed in your dashboard. Packages that exceed our size or weight limits are returned immediately and will not generate a notification.

Can I get a tracking number for forwarded mail?

Absolutely. You’ll receive tracking info for any forwarded packages or letters as soon as it ships out.

Do you offer storage for my mail?

Yes — but we are not a long-term storage service. We hold all mail — letters and flats — for up to 30 days. After that, regular mail is destroyed unless you’ve contacted us in advance to make other arrangements. Packages may be stored for up to 3 additional months at a rate of $10 per-package, per-month. Any mail or packages left beyond those limits will be destroyed.

Do I need a forwarding request every time, or can I set a schedule?

All forwarding — whether on-demand or on a schedule — is arranged by you directly through your dashboard. You can request mail forwarding whenever you like, or set up a recurring schedule that works for you. Forwarding only takes place when your prepaid account has sufficient funds to cover postage and handling.

Do I need to notify you before someone sends me packages or mail?

No notification is needed for standard letters or packages under 30 pounds — your senders can simply use your assigned address. If you're expecting something oversized, unusually valuable, or time-sensitive, it’s helpful to let us know in advance. We do not accept packages over 30 pounds; those are returned to sender immediately upon arrival.

Do you forward internationally?

Yes — we can forward mail and packages to most international destinations. Rates and delivery times vary depending on the country, and all postage and handling costs must be covered by your prepaid balance. Please note that customs delays, import taxes, and local delivery issues are outside our control.

Will my mail say “Suite” or “Box”?

Your address will include a PMB (Private Mailbox) number, formatted in compliance with USPS guidelines. It won’t say “P.O. Box,” but depending on how your sender formats the address, it may show as “PMB,” “Unit,” "Lot" or sometimes “#.” This format helps ensure wide acceptance while keeping everything compliant with postal regulations. How it's addressed must be one of those three choices but is up to you to decide which suits you best
