A Dedicated US Residential Address Solution
For remote individuals, managing personal US affairs from abroad frequently collides with address requirements. TruResidence by VirtualPostMail was built specifically to solve this issue. Rather than routing mail through commercial warehouses or office suites, it utilizes real single-family homes situated in established neighborhoods across the United States.

Optional Documentation and Ancillary Costs
It is important to clearly understand the boundary between your monthly plan fee and specialized add-ons:
- Leases and Utilities Are Optional Add-ons: A formal personal lease agreement, physical space rental, and personal utility or internet accounts are separately priced options, not built into base membership.
- Security Deposit Requirements: Requesting an executed lease agreement requires a $1,200 refundable security deposit, returned upon normal completion of the lease term (terms typically run 1 to 3 months).
- Utility Setup Rules: Obtaining a utility bill in your personal name requires a minimum lease commitment of 2 months due to utility provider setup windows. Underlying space rent depends on local market rates.
- Parcels and Additional Scans: Unlimited exterior envelope imaging is included. Extra content scanning is billed at $3/item (covering up to 30 pages, then $0.25/page). Packages up to 10 lbs are accepted at $5/lb handling fee, with forwarding postage billed separately.
Essential Operating Rules
To ensure an uninterrupted experience, keep these operational boundaries in mind:
- Shared Address Format: Properties use a shared street number across verified subscribers without private unit or suite numbers. Mail sorting relies strictly on verified recipient names. It is not an exclusive private home.
- Weekly Collection Schedule: Mail is physically collected by staff once per week, introducing a roughly one-week window between carrier delivery and digital dashboard posting.
- Restricted Use Cases: TruResidence addresses are strictly for personal communication. They may not be displayed on public websites, registered on Google Business Profiles, or used as registered entity office addresses. All lease and utility orders are subject to property capacity.
