BCM Mail & Ship, Quartzsite AZ

Hi Guys,
Here are the problems with BCM.
1. You don't really get a street address, just a PO Box.
They have a street address that they use for packages, but the PO
doesn't send mail to that address and doesn't have it in their system.
So if anyone tries to send mail to the physical (street) address it gets returned marked "no such address".
DMV will allow you to use the mailing address (PO Box) on your license and registration and accept the street address for a physical location. Apparently they don't check it's validity.
Where it gets tricky is with places that require a valid street address.
Chase, for example, won't accept BCM's street address so I'm using the address of the park where I'm workamping. Chase, like DMV, has instructions to use my BCM PO Box for all correspondence so the street address is really irrelevant in that case.
But, if the company requires a valid street address and they check the address you give them..........
2. In the 10 months I've been with BCM they managed to lose 2 pcs. and failed to notify me of 2 other items that were in the box.
I received those unexpectedly with other requested mail.
If you can live with the limitations, and keep your communications with them simple you might be OK.
BCM seems to be the cheapest place in AZ at $80/yr.
You can get a street address with Traveling Mail Box or PostScanMail for $15/mo; or Mail & More for $25/mo.
Good Luck,

We use the Salome post office when we winter in Brenda. So far no complaints.

Our experience from Q is quite bad. You cannot use the street address or RV park address at all. The only thing that works is to rent a PO box and that availability is questionable. If anything is not to their liking such as BOTH the box number and a street address they will return it in a heartbeat! I have put my brothers name and mine on the letter along with a proper PO bx number and still had that returned to sender. Poorly run PO. By the way UPS, FedX, etc. work great. They bring it right to you RV space!

Have you looked into the FMCA Mail forwarding service?

This poster uses it

Their website is a bit dated and cheesy, but they do say they offer RVer address services.

I would find ANY service other than QZ unless you plan to spend most of your Winter there and have no other good option.
