Having read numerous discussions over the years on mail forwarding, and having tried a few options, I asked a neighbor with an out-of-state home how they managed it. The answer was USPS Premium Forwarding, with a resounding endorsement.
I really had no desire to change our 'home' address to something else just so we could get a forwarding service, so USPS sounded like a good way to go. Our neighbor reported that the USPS collects your mail and, once a week, ships it to your new destination, where it usually arrives two days later.
There's a $15 1-time sign-up fee and $17/week for the premium service. There's also a non-premium service for a lower fee. Everything, including signup and dates of service (including changes) are handled online.
I'll report on the service in a few weeks.
