LMAO...and I can tell you from experience. Texas will ask how big is the couch in that P.O. Box.
If it won't hold a couch, you can't use it as an address.
live in my truck?

theres a lot of people who dont get mail to there address. I know here in Ontario, canada we have a lot of mail which comes to PO box's. I'd say use a friends/coworker even address as your D/L home an the po box for your mail. That way when your back in the company yard u can get your mail for sure! No need to try an track it down or someone misplacin it

same with Louisiana.

####, and I thought that being in the truck for 6 to 8 weeks was a long time out!Brickman Thanks this. -
Get an address at a ups store that way it will appear to be an apartment # and not a p.o box
-
I've been looking into this, but I haven't found out if you need to provide an address to get the UPS box (due to some of the 'Patriot Act' B.S.)??
My idea was to use my current real address, get the box before I move out and then do a usps address change "into" the box. Put all my #### into a storage unit and go! Any flaw in my logic here?Last edited: Oct 31, 2009

Family and friends come in quite handy here. Through most of the 90s, I used my folks' address, as I had no family of my own and not much reason to get off the road for any length of time. It wasn't until I started driving regionally out of Alabama that I had an "Oh, darn! Gotta find a pad!" moment.
A friend's parents had a piece of property with a big old house on it, and they rented it to me cheap just to keep it occupied. -
I live in New York, I have my PO Box on my lic and yes they send it there. But we do have to give them our residence address as well.

this would work in California, not sure about Texas.
goto a UPS store & rent a mailbox from them. It will have a street address with a # after it(kinda like an apartment address)
example(the address is the UPS store addy & the #391 would be your box #)
jon doe
1234 Jones St #391
city, state, zip -
For another possible solution, google "mailbox etc". You rent a mailbox but get a real address for your mailbox as if it was an apartment. . The Post Office will not accept UPS but Mailbox Etc will provide that service for you. Mailbox Etc has some other interesting services. Check on the availability at the location you will be using. At some locations they have 24 hour access to your mailbox and the ability to check in by phone to see if a package has arrived. Try that at the Post Office.
The Challenger Thanks this.
