+ How can I request my mail?
You can request your mail online through your client portal, emailing
office@dakotapost.net, or by giving us a call. With a Virtual Mailbox, you always have to request your mail to be sent. Once your mail is sent then your box goes on “hold” status until you request your mail again.
+ What shipping options are offered?
We ship via USPS, FedEx, and DHL.
+ Is viewing my online Virtual Mail secure?
Virtual Mailbox is completely secure, but still simple to use. Our Client Portal is encrypted, and requires a unique login and password for every customer. If you are currently on a traditional mail-forwarding plan, you can keep it the same – with the added bonus of being able to gain immediate access to communications.
+ Why choose Short-term Mail Forwarding?
This service is designed for those RVers, remote worker, and travel lovers who need a temporary mail forwarding solution rather than a permanent one.
