To all SD mail forwarding clients how many of the services in SD have PMB in the address? i.e. 3916 N Potsdam Ave PMB XXXXDakota Post and Americas Mailbox do, what about the others?If I remember right there is one in Emory, Chamberlain, Madison and another in Sioux Falls.Having issues with the PMB part of the address.JimR

Why not leave the "PMB" out of the address then? When the mail gets delivered to the address, they'll know what to do with it - the "PMB" doesn't help them, all they need is the box #.Bill

For 7 yrs our address was:3400 S. Westport Ave# XXXXSioux Falls, SDOr Apt. #Or Suite #Alternative Resources didn't have an issue with it....it had the number on it.Just use any of those when doing your change of addresses

We generally leave the PMB out of our address however, there are places like DMV that know it is a PMB. Having a PMB for the last 8 years has not caused even one problem. We use mydakotaaddress and Terri is awesome to deal with.

We use America's Mailbox - their preferred address is their street address with a #xxxx added (xxxx = the box number). While it IS a PMB, the post office and almost everybody else will accept that format. Some places want the box number on a separate address line, but that's no big deal.al
