Almost all communications paths today are mobile. Email, faxes, cellular phones, wireless internet, GPS can all travel with you keeping you connected. The only thing that seems to tie us down to a specific location is actual mail. Document Command's Remote Control Mail service now makes antiquated snail mail mobile with a variety of services for modern nomads. If you travel for work, live abroad or take lots of vacations you may already know that the traditional mail forwarding services are a bit behind the times. The USPS offers a mail forwarding service but the cost is fairly high and they don't forward to foreign destinations.
Post office boxes are secure but if they fill up someone has to keep the postal workers happy by doing a regular check-in. And the USPS only holds mail for thirty day periods, hardly enough time to get acquainted with the locals or see all the sights on your world adventure tours.
Of course there are reliable neighbors and administrative staff who can step in but how long can you rely on the kindness of friends or employees? Plus it's hard to delegate sorting through your mail without actually seeing it. What if the item is translated incorrectly and an important notice is thrown out.
Besides with private email, faxes and computer voice mailboxes, when was the last time you had to rely on an actual person to keep you up to date with your own communication?
Remote Control Mail stands out as a 21st century mail service. Just like email, your postal mail can be instantly reviewed online from anywhere in the world. You can see what's there and decide what's important to keep, forward or shred. Remote Control Mail even allows you to see the contents of your mail if you choose.
Remote Control Mail works by you choosing a DCI Remote Address and having selected mail sent to the service. You can choose to send whatever you like and you can choose to have certain mail delivered to your home like magazines or packages.
Remote Control Mail will pick up your mail from the Post Office daily, scan all the envelopes and deliver the scanned images to you online.
