At BSSI, we believe sending and receiving your mail should be convenient and straightforward, whether you’re working remotely, traveling, or want an easier way to manage what shows up in your Inbox. That’s why we offer several mail-forwarding options—from low-cost to fast, guaranteed delivery. With choices including USPS, FedEx, UPS, and other carriers, you can pick what works best for you and your schedule. In this article, we walk through the different mail forwarding options available and how to choose the one that best fits your needs.
BSSI typically uses USPS to send your mail. Our mailroom team knows the system well and can forward your mail quickly and easily. The cost of this service includes a 30% handling fee in addition to postage. For example, if postage is $1, then the handling fee would be 30 cents, and the total cost would be $1.30. Postage depends on the mail’s weight, size, and destination.
This is best for letters and large, light, flexible envelopes. USPS usually delivers in 1–5 days, but times can vary. This option does not include tracking. Please remember that if you choose this method, the item will be invisible during transit.

A budget-friendly choice for packages. Delivery usually takes 2–5 days, and tracking is included so you can follow your package. This is a good option when visibility isn’t as important to you.
Pros:
Cons:
Suitable for essential items that need to arrive faster. Delivery is usually 2–3 days, and tracking is included. USPS aims for this time frame, but it’s not guaranteed. This method is often used for important documents and checks.
Pros:
Cons: It can be more expensive
This is for urgent shipments. Delivery is 1–3 days, and USPS provides a money-back guarantee if it’s late. Tracking is included, as is USPS’s fastest service.

BSSI can also forward mail using other carriers to give you more choices and flexibility.
If you prefer your mail be forwarded using FedEx, you’ll need to provide your account number so the carrier can bill you directly. With this method, BSSI charges a flat $5 handling fee per item forwarded.
Depending on your mail forwarding address, the urgency of the delivery, and other factors, using FedEx or UPS to forward your mail might be a better option than USPS. For example, some business owners prefer direct access to tracking information through their FedEx or UPS account so they can track their packages’ progress online independently. Additionally, some customers find that FedEx and UPS offer more reliable service, especially with international shipments. If you don’t have your own FedEx or UPS account, don’t worry! As two of the most popular mail carriers in the United States, they make setting up an account convenient and straightforward.
We don’t create shipping labels for carriers other than USPS, FedEx, or UPS. However, we can forward your mail via other airlines if you provide a label. BSSI’s $5 handling fee still applies for these carriers. If you choose this method, be sure to schedule a pickup with your carrier at our office!
At BSSI, our goal is to make mail forwarding easy, reliable, and stress-free. Our team works hard to handle your mail with care and offer options that fit your needs. No matter which service you choose, you can count on BSSI for friendly support and dependable service every step of the way.

A virtual office lets a business work without renting a regular office. Instead of a full workspace, companies get a business address, help with mail and calls, and access to meeting rooms when needed. The services include a physical address, mail receiving and forwarding, and a receptionist staff.
You can open a business account at many banks using a virtual office business address. Each bank has different requirements, so check with your bank. Since you can register your business under a virtual address, it is also suitable for a business account at many financial institutions.
With a mail forwarding service, you provide a mail forwarding address and choose a schedule for us to send your mail. How we forward mail and how often is determined by you. Our staff will collect, store, and then forward mail as prearranged. Charges apply.
Our friendly staff can help list your assigned phone number and business address with the local 411 directory, whether you choose a virtual office in Las Vegas or New York City. This service helps make your business easier to find and adds credibility. Please note that a one-time setup fee and ongoing monthly listing charges apply.
Yes, absolutely! Your mail is available for pickup during our regular weekday office hours. If you’re not sure whether you have mail waiting for you, we recommend giving us a quick call or sending an email before stopping by. This helps save you time and ensures your visit to the office is quick and convenient. We also offer drive-thru mail pickup at our Las Vegas location!
For our valued clients, mail forwarding is easy. The total cost includes postage plus a 30% mail handling fee. This helps cover the careful processing and timely delivery of your mail. If you’d like more details or have questions about how mail forwarding works, please click here to learn more.
All BSSI Virtual Office and Phone Answering agreements are between two companies, not an individual and multiple companies. BSSI is a business-to-business (B2B) service provider. The agreements cannot be assigned to another company. Do your clients know you by another name? Your fictitious name (DBA) can be added and shared with your corporation or LLC at a discounted rate in the mailbox. Each company name and/or sister company requires its agreement and incurs fees.
Mail receiving is included with your business address services, so you can rest easy knowing your mail is handled for you. You’re welcome to pick up your mail at our facility at no additional cost. If you choose extra services like mail scanning or forwarding, separate fees will apply based on the service selected.
A virtual office helps reduce costs like rent, utilities, commuting, and office supplies while still giving your business a professional image. It offers a flexible, modern solution for today’s fast-changing economy. At the same time, a virtual office supports business growth, boosts team morale, and allows you to focus your time on what matters most.
A virtual mailbox provides your business with a real street address that can be legally used for tax purposes. Unlike a P.O. Box or home address, it allows you to receive official mail and packages at a professional location. Many services scan and forward your mail, letting you view important documents online while staying organized and professional.
A free virtual office address might sound appealing, but many successful businesses choose paid services instead. Investing in a quality virtual office plan provides better support, reliability, and room to grow. Rather than relying on a limited free option, an affordable paid plan can meet your needs as your business expands and help set you up for long-term success.
To get your services up and running, we’ll just need a few things from you:
BSSI will keep you updated every step of the way with helpful email notifications about your account status and service details.
Getting started with a virtual office is quick and easy! Simply visit our website and purchase a Virtual Office Las Vegas or NYC package through our secure checkout. After signing up, you’ll receive an email with your service agreement, required forms, and USPS Form 1583. Once you return the completed documents, we’ll finish setting up your account and get you ready to go.
Mail-receiving service agencies like BSSI Virtual Office are 100% dedicated to having all clients fill out the USPS Form 1583. We are registered with the USPS as a commercial mail-receiving agency (CMRA), allowing us to receive mail on behalf of our customers. When a company signs up for mail receiving, usually as part of a virtual office business address package, the service provider must be a CMRA.
Businesses of all sizes can use virtual offices. Small businesses like them because they save money and help improve cash flow. Traveling professionals can use virtual offices to access a quality workspace when needed. Virtual offices are also great for start-ups and growing businesses because they offer flexible, low-cost options that accommodate remote workers.
Your company name can be displayed in the physical directory at our office center. Availability may vary by location, so we recommend checking your chosen office for details. Suite directory listings include a monthly fee, and additional charges may apply. Please note that space in the directory can be limited.
We do accept parcels, courier items, and packets (including business documents) from all mail carriers. Our company cannot accept any item exceeding 10 pounds in weight or larger than 11-7/8 inches x 13-5/8 inches. We also do not accept items containing dangerous, live, or perishable goods.
The Virtual Offices of Las Vegas facility provides private offices and conference rooms for one-on-one interviews or larger meetings. Our facilities are available on a reservation basis, subject to location and availability. The New York City office is strictly a mail facility with a reception area.
Clients can use our address for their business address for local business license requirements. The client’s industry must be permitted for our location through the local business licensing authorities. Please refer to your city’s local licensing authority for business requirements.
A mobile office is a flexible work setup that allows a person or business to work from multiple locations rather than a single, fixed office. However, if you want a polished, professional business image without paying for a long-term office lease, a virtual office is also essential. Many small and home-based businesses choose virtual offices for their affordability, credibility, and convenience.
A virtual office creates all the location and service needs for companies to conduct business virtually. First, a local business address with mail receiving and forwarding services helps meet all marketing and correspondence requirements. Second, a local phone number with a staff of receptionists to answer all your calls. Lastly, use of an on-site conference room, fax, and copy machine (location dependent).
A P.O. box is a locked mailbox inside a post office where you collect mail and small packages from the U.S. Postal Service. A virtual mailbox is a modern service that provides a real street address for receiving mail from multiple carriers. Staff can scan, forward, or securely shred your mail based on your instructions.
