PS Form 1093-C Application for Post Office Caller Servic
What Is PS Form 1093-C?
PS Form 1093-C, Application for Post Office Caller Service is a document used to apply for a caller service, which permits a post office customer to obtain mail addressed to a PO Box number through a loading dock or a call window.
Caller service mail is provided separately for each paid caller service address. Reserve service lets customers reserve preferable caller addresses for a minimal fee. Users receiving large quantities of mail can use "locked bags" that have numbers like PO Boxes. This service is called Caller Service, and the assigned number is known as a Caller Number, although mail is generally addressed to a PO Box.
The Caller Service is a premium service accessible for a fee to a customer who:
- Needs more than free carrier service;
- Plans to receive an incoming volume of mail that cannot fit into the largest post office Box available;
- Receives or intends to receive more mail that can be delivered to the largest post office Box available at the facility or wants to collect mail periodically during the day.
The latest version of the form was released by the United States Postal Office (USPS) on August 1, 2023 with all previous editions obsolete. An up-to-date USPS Form 1093-C fillable version is available for download below and can be found through the USPS official website.
Related forms include the PS Form 1093/PS Form 1093-S (used to apply for a PO Box) and the PS Form 1093-A/PS Form 1093-A-S (used by current PO Box customers to apply for automatic recurring renewal payments).
