New PS Form 1093 Applications for Post Office Boxes and Caller Service
Customers applying for new Post Office™ box service will need to submit a PS Form 1093, Application for Post Office Box Service, October 2008, and customers applying for caller service will need to submit a PS Form 1093-C, Application for Post Office Caller Service, October 2008.
PS Form 1093 was completely revised and a new PS Form 1093-C was created to accommodate the differences in regulations between Post Office box and caller/reserve service we provide to our customers. The revised PS Form 1093 for Post Office box customers is similar to the Post Office box online PS Form1093. (See forms on pages 6–9 and 10–13.)
It is essential that all employees responsible for issuing Post Office boxes and caller service become familiar with the new forms and use the standard operating procedures for issuing Post Office boxes found on the Retail Web page at http://blue.usps.gov/retail/L1InfoSystems.htm. The new PS Form 1093 and PS Form 1093-C should be filed by box number with the current PS Form 1093s. Both forms should be retained for 2 years after the box is closed.
Note: Postmasters and station managers must exhaust current supplies of PS Form 1093, Application for Post Office Box or Caller Service (July, 2007), before ordering the revised form(s) from the Material Distribution Center (MDC). Sites should only order the amount needed. These forms are also available online and can be printed as needed from http://blue.usps.gov/formmgmt/forms.htm. When ordering from the MDC, use PSN 7530-02-000-7165 for PS Form 1093, and PSN 7530-11-000-5120 for PS Form 1093-C.
