Why Choose Our Mail Holding & Storage Service in San Ysidro?
Our mail holding service is built for the unique needs of cross-border residents, long-term travelers, expats, and anyone managing US mail from outside the country. Here is what makes us the right choice over every alternative.
Holds All Carriers — Not Just USPS
USPS Hold Mail only stops United States Postal Service deliveries. Packages from Amazon, FedEx, UPS, and DHL continue to arrive at your address whether you are there or not. Our San Ysidro mail holding service accepts and securely stores deliveries from every carrier — Amazon Logistics, USPS, FedEx, UPS, and DHL — so nothing piles up, nothing gets stolen, and nothing is missed.
No 30-Day Limit — Hold Mail as Long as You Need
The USPS free Hold Mail service has a strict maximum of 30 days. After that, delivery resumes automatically. If you are traveling internationally for 2–6 months, living in Mexico, or simply need your mail held while you settle into a new home, 30 days is not enough. Our San Ysidro mail holding service has no calendar limit — we hold your mail and packages for as long as your situation requires, whether that is 3 weeks or 9 months.
Email and WhatsApp Notifications on Every Arrival
The moment any mail or package arrives at our San Ysidro facility, you receive an automatic notification by email and WhatsApp. Notifications include sender details, carrier, and package information. You know exactly what is waiting for you before you even cross the border or book your return flight. Contact us on WhatsApp at (619) 297-2851 for real-time updates.
Secure, Monitored Facility with Professional Staff
Every item received is logged with a tracking reference, photographed, and stored in our secure, monitored facility. Your mail and packages are never left unattended outside, never exposed to weather, and protected from porch piracy. Our bilingual team handles every item with care. Your mail is only released to you or to someone you specifically authorize.
Flexible Pickup or Forwarding When You Return
When you are ready for your held mail, you have two options: pick it up in person at 380 E. San Ysidro Blvd, or request forwarding to any address — your US address, your Mexico address, or anywhere in the world. We can also consolidate everything into a single forwarded shipment to reduce delivery costs.

Frequently Asked Questions About Mail Holding in San Ysidro
Q1: How is your mail holding service different from USPS Hold Mail?
The USPS Hold Mail service is free but limited to 30 days maximum and covers only USPS mail. Amazon, FedEx, UPS, and DHL packages continue to arrive at your address regardless. Our San Ysidro mail holding service has no duration limit — we hold for days, weeks, or months — and accepts all carriers. It is the complete solution that USPS cannot provide.
Q2: How long can you hold my mail in San Ysidro?
We hold mail and packages for as long as you need — days, weeks, or months. There is no 30-day limit like the USPS Hold Mail service. Our service is especially popular with travelers, expats, and cross-border residents who need holding periods of 2–6 months or longer. Storage fees of $7.50 per week (under 30 lbs) apply to packages held.
Q3: How much does mail holding cost in San Ysidro?
Package storage fees start at $7.50 per week for items under 30 lbs and $12.50 per week for items over 30 lbs. Annual mailbox plan holders ($160/yr) receive mail holding as standard with no additional per-item storage fees during normal hold periods. Contact us at (619) 213-6259 for rates on extended business mail holds or high-volume storage.
Q4: Can you hold packages from Amazon, FedEx, and UPS — not just USPS mail?
Yes. This is our biggest advantage over the free USPS Hold Mail service. We hold packages from every carrier: Amazon Logistics, USPS, FedEx, UPS, and DHL. Whether you shop from US online stores or receive business shipments, every delivery is received, logged, and stored securely until you are ready to collect or request forwarding.
Q5: Will I be notified when my mail arrives during the hold period?
Yes. You receive an automatic email and WhatsApp notification whenever a mail or package arrives at our San Ysidro facility. Notifications include the sender’s details, the carrier, and a description of the item. This keeps you fully informed about time-sensitive arrivals — such as checks, government notices, or package deliveries — from anywhere in the world. WhatsApp: (619) 297-2851.
Q6: Can cross-border residents from Tijuana use your mail holding service?
Yes. Our service is specifically designed for cross-border residents from Tijuana, Rosarito, Ensenada, and all of Baja California who maintain a US address for mail and packages.

Our San Ysidro location is steps from the border for quick, convenient pickup during your next crossing.
Q7: Can you forward my held mail to my address in Mexico?
Yes. When you are ready for your held mail and packages, we can forward everything to any address in Mexico — Tijuana, Guadalajara, Monterrey, Mexico City, or anywhere in the country. We can also consolidate multiple held items into a single forwarded shipment to reduce total delivery costs. Forwarding fees are based on package weight and destination.
Q8: What types of mail and packages do you hold?
We hold all types of mail and packages: USPS First Class letters, Priority Mail, certified and registered mail, Amazon deliveries, FedEx Ground and Express shipments, UPS Ground and Next Day Air, DHL Express, subscription boxes, business correspondence, legal documents, and checks.
