    I've got a PO Box on my Texas CDL. I don't even think my employer has my physical address now that I think about it. Started using it when I lived out in the boonies. I no longer stay out longer than three nights and live in a real good neighborhood. Should just get a locking mailbox at home and save the $80 bucks a year for my PO box.....

    Ask your company if you can use their address. I don't do it but I know my company (smaller family owned) does collect mail for a couple of drivers.

    When I got my CDL in 2012 I was using a rented mail box from the UPS store in Council Bluffs, IA. Great service all around. I did have to jig the address around as if I used it straight forward it would get flagged as a commercial address in some places. The UPS store gave me instructions on how to format the address so it would work as residential (it has been awhile, I forget the format).
