<p>[QUOTE="davidh, post: 2649102, member: 15062"]If you want to have your mail held, fill out two request forms.

The hold card you leave at the post office is supposed to be clipped to his routing station but can moved or lost for any number of reasons and he will not know to hold your mail. If you leave a card in your mailbox it's pretty hard for him to not notice it. If you have an opening lid on your box, tape the hold card to the inside of the lid so he'll see it each time the box is opened. You could even get creative and stuff something into the box making it impossible to put anything in, like blow up a balloon inside the box and use a sharpie to write a hold message on it.
