Does anyone know if Apex post office accepts mail for an address while the house is under construction? If they do, can they hold the mail for pick-up or forward it to a temporary mailbox/address?
Tried to call the post office but line's always busy. Called the 800# and they cannot answer any questions that require any thinking. The lady can only recite the answer to the closest question in their FAQ.
I don't want to have to do change of address twice with businesses, employer, banks, etc... I have a long list.
I'd like to know what out-of-state folks did with your mail while your house was under construction and you had temp housing?
You need an address and mailbox. They won't deliver mail if there is no mailbox.
When we moved here we rented a mailbox (at Apex, actually) and then when we moved into the house, just notified people of the new address. You don't have to do another forwarding order or change of address form - just notify people you deal with of your new addy when you move in. Most of this stuff can be done online or over the phone anyway...as bills and other correspondence come in, just notify the sender.

We have an address already. In fact, I could go to WCPSS website and find the assigned base school. There could be a few months in between when we move to temp housing and into the house. I understand about renting a mailbox. So, did you do a "forward address" from old address to mailbox first, then you did the "change of address" from old address to new home address when you moved in?
I just want to notify senders once with the new home address when we move. It's the interim that I'm not sure what to do. Thanks.

yes...filed a forwarding order to p.o. box.....then as mail came I I would just notify sender of house address....instead of filing another forwarding order...ie...I got AMEX bill and called them with house address when we moved in. You have to notify places anyway because mail is only forwarded for a year. Wont be an issue for things like your new utilities so that is easy at least.
good luck!
