What will a virtual mailbox really cost you each month?
Advertised prices are the plan only. Your bill also depends on how many letters you open, forward, shred and deposit. Enter your month and this calculator applies each provider's published fees.

What's in the number, and what isn't
- Included: plan price, items over the plan's allowance, open-and-scan fees (including extra pages), shredding, forwarding handling fees and check-deposit fees, exactly as each provider publishes them. The calculator picks whichever plan comes out cheapest for your numbers.
- Not included: postage (every provider passes it through), sales tax, the one-time Form 1583 notary fee, packages, and storage fees (we assume you act on mail within the free storage period).
- "Lowest published price": iPostal1, PostScan Mail and US Global Mail charge more at some addresses. We use the lowest price they publish, so treat their total as a floor.
- "+ not published": the provider charges for this but doesn't publish the price, so it's left out of the total. Ask before you sign up.
- Anytime Mailbox isn't calculated because every location sets its own fees. Opus is a virtual office bundle, not a mail-scanning plan.
