Mail forwarding

I've been trying to manage our mail while on the road but it's not working so I'm looking for a service.
Looking at My RV mail (good sam) or Escapees?
  • We have found Good Sams Mailing many options helpful.
    In 4 years, no late mail.

    With frequent travel, I try to plan ahead and have my mail sent to a campground or the home where we are visiting. Many campgrounds allow for that.
    Any urgent mail can be scanned and emailed same day.
    If I need mail fast, they can overnight.
    Depends on your needs.
  • With any mail forwarding service you have to tell them where your at and remain there until your mail arrives. Now if you take off before your mail arrives that's your problem, not theirs.

    Yes. This is a mail forwarding service. They will receive your mail/packages and forward them to you at your expense.

  • We’ve been FT for 5 years and Escapees has worked well for us. Never a problem.
  • Been using the My RV Mail/GoodSam for approx 7 years with no issues and if a GS member you get a discount. We're "Most Timers" spending 8 to 10 months per year in the RV, so the service in Crestview, Florida is our official address and used for everything.
  • We have used Escapees in Livingston, TX for over 15 years without issue. I highly recommend their service.
  • We have been using My RV Mail since we went Full Time 4 years ago
    We have enjoyed the service before and after Good Sam took it over. We have had no problems or complaints.

    We are on the road often and really like the services. Especially when mail arrives that we want to see asap. They scan the items you request to see and then email you the scan the same day.Costs a couple of dollars. We needed it a couple of times and each time it was helpful.
    Also, they shread all of our junk mail!
    Easy to use, convenient. We will continue to use the service.
