International Shipping
When you want to send and/or receive mail and packages internationally, you have a few different options. As of this writing, these are the four most commonly used services in San Miguel. Each provides a U.S. address, will deliver both mail and packages, and charges a monthly fee as well as additional fees for packages. Check those additional fees carefully.
You may be wondering if you can use Mex Post, which is the postal service of Mexico, and quite cheap. Well, things might get there…eventually. Then again, they might not. Unless you really don’t care if or when an item arrives, steer clear.
