I have heard that you can get a Florida address from Mail Boxes Etc. and that they will forward your mail from the U.S. to mail boxes etc on San Pedro. Do any of you use this and if so is it worth it and how much does it cost? Are there any other options for mailing things from the U.S. to San Pedro? Thanks for any advice.

Hello Mawags.....Yes, we use Mailboxes Etc. for a few things....First this is our US mailing address for institutions that require a US address....And then we also send items via Amazon and others to the address for forwarding to Belize....Of course we always appreciate when we can send items directly to our friends' homes and they bring them with their regular luggage......(it's a matter of expense) Hope this helps!

Hey Judyann, Thanks. Can we just register at the mailboxes in SanPedro when we get there or do we have to go to one in the US first? How much is it? Found a place at Ambergris Lake Villas, we will see you in January!

Here is their email address they will give you all the details you need, very helpful and reasonable price,Rob Hanke

Very Nice! Can hardly wait for you to arrive, you are going to make a great addition to the neighborhood...... Let us know anything we can do to help.... AND thank you Tracker, I did not have Rob's e-mail handy.....

Thanks Judyann, See you soon!

If it is actual "Mail" you're looking to get, check out www.travelingmailbox.com, they receive your mail and scan it for you. They will also forward things like checks to important places like banks This obviously doesn't work for getting actual items / packages here but for mail it is a great solution.
