Federal Way, Washington– Have you ever wondered who would pay to have private mailbox services when mail delivery is free? With personal mailbox services from The UPS Store®, there’s no need to wait at home (or anywhere else for that matter) for a package delivery or risk having valuable shipments left on your doorstep. The UPS Store can receive packages from any carrier and hold them in a secure location for pick-up at your convenience. As an additional advantage, mailbox holders have the option to receive notifications, via e-mail or text, alerting them that their packages have been received, eliminating unnecessary trips to the center. For small-business owners, The UPS Store provides an actual street address for their businesses, which conveys a more professional touch, and if they’re running a business out of their home, they don’t have to give out their home address. “Our 24-hour access mailbox services are a convenience that more general and small-business consumers are discovering,” said Doug Reetz, The UPS Store owner. “They like the fact that we provide them with a street address, not a P.O. box, as well as the option to receive an e-mail or a text alert when they have a package waiting,” he added.

The first step to economic recovery begins in your own neighborhood as our nation continues to look to Capitol Hill for relief from our economic woes, we shouldn’t lose sight of the fact that economic recovery will begin with the small businesses that operate in our own neighborhoods. You know us. We not only make a living in your community, we are an integral part of your community. And when we’re not providing the goods and services you need, we’re sitting beside you at school and other civic meetings, little league games, or your place of worship. Small business is a major economic driver that has propelled the economy out of recessions many times in the past. It is often described as the backbone or the engine of the economy—a fact we all should consider when making buying decisions. Even though we are all trying to do more with less and make our dollars stretch further than ever, we can take comfort in knowing that when we spend those precious dollars at local small businesses, we are helping to prime the pump that will get our economy flowing again. Think of it as a local investment with national, and even global, implications. NBC economics reporter Martin Wolk once wrote, “There is something magical, almost mythical, about small business in America.” It’s a nice sentiment, and we are proud to represent the entrepreneurial spirit of America and the 27 million entrepreneurs who are helping to get this economic engine back on track. We thank you for your continued support and look forward to the day when the topic of conversation is other important matters—like the weather. Doug Reetz owns The UPS Store in Federal Way, Washington and Puyallup South Hill, Wa. He has been a member of the local business community for 25 years.
