No, people do it for business reasons all the time.

It's more suspicious to do it in a town you don't reside.

I use it like this for years and never had any problems, like ghoul said its mostly used by people who can't be at home that often bc of work etc.
So its not sus at all.

Yes, can't be at home. But I'm going to rent one 1 mile from my house. Obviously I am home if I'm renting a box 1 mile away.

People do it to keep their physical address private, totally legit. You have to open in your real name though. ID is thoroughly checked.

That's true, they do it for businesses.

You might also want to look into delivering into a postage locker which is basically a temporary PO box.

what would be the purpose? doesn't offer any security.. just so packs dont get stolen? or so u will be on camera picking up ur package?

I'm sure most of the p.o boxes in your area are used by people in your area....
