How to qualify to getting a "free" p.o. box at the postal office?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

The reason it is free for me is because there is no curbside delivery for my house. Since curbside delivery is normally free (as far as I know), if you do not get such a delivery, they must provide you a free PO Box at the local office. In order to open the box as free, I had to show proof of residency. Since there was no mail and my deed does not have the physical address, I had to use my loan approval paperwork.
The USPS website describes this kind of delivery "Central Point Delivery". It just so happens that in many of the communities around me, the Central Point is the Post Office.

I've heard of some very small post offices that don't provide service to homes that are nearby and they're required to pick up their mail at the post office. It could be that the post office provides a box for free in those instances.

Mail typically arrives faster at a PO Box than at a residential or business address.
Fees for a six-month term start as low as $10.
Choose a location close to work or home—whatever fits your needs. Select Post Offices have extended business hours and/or 24-hour lobby access.
4 Simple Steps to Find and Pay for a New PO Box online:
