PO BOX - how to get one?

ciderandhavoc · 13-01-2003 12:55am #1

How would I go about getting a PO Box number from An Post?

I can find nothing about it on their website.

Any ideas of the costs involved, and how I service it (do I collect post, or is it forwarded on etc.)

I'd be greatful if anyone could help me in this regard.

Generally the PO Box that you pick up from are attached to sorting offices and as such keep early hours.

The other thing I've found is the the PO tends to sort these items a little more slowly then regular mail, ie I think they give them a low priotity within the sorting office.

Mailboxes etc... offer the same service.

Is that the "Mailboxes" company? If so they seem to be open good hours.

Mailboxes are in Dublin in Rathmines and I have seen an ad in Cork for one.
