NOHO Mailbox vs PostScan Mail
PostScan Mail is a solid mid-market network at $15-$45/mo, but you're still buying service from whichever partner operator runs that local storefront — quality varies. We have lower-cost starting tiers AND we own the storefront, so the service quality is consistent every single visit.

| Mail scanning | 25 free / $2 after | Per-piece — varies by partner |
| Walk-in storefront | Yes — Mon-Sat, same team | Operator-dependent — every partner is different |

| Same-day delivery | $5 in NoHo, $9–$28 LA | Not standard |
| Notary on Form 1583 | Free with Business / Premium | Customer's expense |
| B2B SaaS license | $299-$1,499/mo (own your platform) | Operator joins PostScan network |
Where we're honestly better
- ✓Owner-operated — the same crew handles your mail every visit, not a different partner
- ✓Lower-cost starting tier when you factor in included scanning + free notary
- ✓Same-day local delivery is built in, not partner-dependent
- ✓License our software if you're an operator tired of joining a network
Where PostScan Mail wins
- ·Much wider US footprint than a single LA storefront
- ·Established 20+ year brand recognition in the virtual-mailbox category
- ·Multiple metro addresses if you need presence in many cities
Should you switch?
PostScan Mail's broader footprint is a real advantage if you live outside LA — they have partner operators across most US metros. The catch is that you're buying service quality from whichever partner runs the location, and that varies. If you're LA-based and want a single storefront where you know the same humans handle your mail every day, walk in.
Lower-cost tier + consistent service
We own the storefront and the platform. Same humans every day, free notary, same-day delivery built in.
