Physical Address' mail scanning service provides many benefits that their rivals don't. One of the biggest is the fact that they operate and maintain every address that customers can choose to process their mail.

Different than their competitors

Competitors often outsource the actual receiving of the mail to third-party partners, often located in strip malls and other facilities - making them prone to losing their leases (and causing lots of headaches for their customers, who then have to change their addresses again). In contrast, Physical Address uses its own mail centers and employees throughout a few different states, which also lets them use whole addresses (like "123 Main St.”). They even brag about the fact that they've never lost a virtual address location (and that is something to be proud of, actually). And, they also make sure their facilities are highly secure: all employees go through strict background checks, there's 24/7 monitoring, and there are no cameras or cell phones allowed in mail handling areas. You definitely won't get that when you use a mail scanning company that works with those strip mall-based partners. Now you're beginning to see why, since 2013, more than 100,000 clients have chosen Physical Address to handle their mail.

Exceptional value

Another huge win for Physical Address is how much you get for what you pay. Every plan comes with unlimited mail recipients, unlimited digital storage, free local pickup, free registered agent service, free secure shredding, and 3 months of non-parcel storage. They offer a 20% discount on all annual plans, but even their month-to-month pricing is super-affordable and comes with a lot included. See for yourself:

• Plan 30 ($7.98/month): the most basic tier comes with 30 envelope scans, 10 content scans, and additional scans are $0.20.
• Plan 50 ($10.98/month): this bumps up the benefits to 50 envelope scans, 25 content scans, and multi-user admin capabilities.
• Plan 100 ($16.98/month): perks at this tier of service include 100 envelope scans, 50 content scans, and a suite number ending in zero.
• Plan 200 ($26.98/month): you've probably guessed by now that this top plan comes with 200 envelope scans and 100 content scans, plus all of the other perks of the previous three. You'd be right.

No fees on check deposits

Although we had to dig into the FAQ to find this detail, we're happy to say that Physical Address provides check deposit processing at no extra charge beyond the cost of the forwarding itself. Many competitors charge a $5 fee on top of the postage, but not Physical Address.

Great reputation and 30-day refund policy

The Better Business Bureau thinks pretty highly of Physical Address, offering an "A” rating and accreditation primarily because this service has only received three complaints at the BBB in the last three years. That's a good sign, because we read some comments from Redditors who said that the positive reviews we see at Trustpilot (to the tune of 1,300+ 5-star ratings) were largely written by employees. However, if that were the case, and those were being written to mask poor service, we'd undoubtedly see far more complaints registered over at the BBB. Whew! And, every plan here comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee, giving you at least a little time to get up and running, and decide for yourself.

Fantastic choice for affordable mail scanning

Physical Address is an amazing option for mail scanning services. You get a ton for what you pay, and we love the 7-days-a-week customer support here. Clients have great things to say about the security of their mail and packages, and the overall value for their monthly fees. Physical Address is our #2 pick among mail scanning providers out there today.
