Delivered packages being stolen in Milwaukee. Are other areas having this issue?

[Milwaukee City]

When we lived om Oklahoma and KK we would get all our mail delivered to our po box since it was right there. There was a sense of calm knowing it was for the most part safe and always delivered by 10am! and I could ship anything of size there. To me it's worth the $60 bucks a year for a po box.

It depends on where you get the PO Box though. There are limitations to having packages shipped to a USPS-held mailbox because they have a PO number and some places frown on shipping to something with an actual PO number. If you get one through UPS on the other hand, it will be fine because your PO Box is more of an address than a PO Box Number.

Are you speaking about having a street address instead of a PO box number? The post office allows you to do this too. I am not able to link to USPS because I have a not smart phone (haha) but I know I saw signs in the post office stating this.
