Full time RVers and digital nomads in general use reshipping centers too. In like South Dakota, Nevada, Florida, Texas - they let you use mail forwarders (not a PO Box) on your driver licenses and registration.

So say you order something and not sure when it will ship out, they'll ship it to their mail forwarder and then overnight ship all their packages and box of mail to them when they know they'll be in a area they'll use general delivery to a post office or campground if they allow receiving mail on your behalf there.

If you stayed in a area for a week or two you can have everything sent there, or if you know you'll be passing through X town in a week. You can go ahead and 2 or 3 day ship something there to be ready to pick up once they get into town. Basically they hold everything until you tell them to send it to you.

Some even also will list your envelopes and if you want to request for them to open it and scan it. So if you get a important letter and you are RVing in Utah or all the way in London you can still read your mail.
