Serving Gold Bar Nature Trails Members
A Real Monroe Address for
Gold Bar Nature Trails Members
GBNT is gated — and that means carriers can't always reach your lot. 10+ Gold Bar Nature Trails members already use The Mail Station in Monroe as their receiving address. Amazon, FedEx, UPS, USPS, and DHL all deliver here without issue.
The Package Problem at Gated Communities Like GBNT
Gate access issues
FedEx and UPS drivers can't always get through the gate or locate individual lots on May Creek Rd. Packages get refused or returned to the carrier depot.
USPS has limited access
USPS only delivers to the park mailbox cluster — not your individual lot. Packages too large for the cluster box get held at the Gold Bar Post Office during limited hours.
Amazon Logistics won't try
Amazon's own drivers frequently mark gated addresses as undeliverable after one attempt, causing delays and re-routing to lockers that may be far away.
A Monroe mailbox removes all three problems. Every carrier delivers to our address — no gate, no confusion, no failed attempts.
How GBNT Members Use The Mail Station
Set up your Monroe mailbox
Come in with two forms of ID. Fill out USPS Form 1583 (required for USPS deliveries — we have it here). Takes about 10 minutes. You leave with a real street address: 19916 Old Owen Rd PMB [your number], Monroe WA 98272.
Give your Monroe address to everyone
Amazon, subscription boxes, vehicle registrations, business correspondence — anything that currently goes to the GBNT gate or bounces. All carriers deliver here reliably.
Pick up on your Monroe run
Most GBNT members stop in on their way out to Monroe for groceries, hardware, or other errands. We notify you when packages arrive so you know whether to stop.
Or forward when you're away
If you're off the mountain for an extended period, we can forward accumulated mail to any address — another home, a relative, wherever you are.
Especially Useful for Part-Time GBNT Members
Packages held securely between weekend visits — no porch theft, no weather damage at an empty lot
Photo notification so you know exactly what arrived before you make the drive
One consistent address year-round — regardless of whether you're at the park or your other home
Mail forwarding to your winter address when the mountain season ends
All carriers in one place — Amazon, FedEx, UPS, USPS, and DHL all accepted
Locally owned since 1982 — personal service, not a franchise counter

Questions from Gold Bar Nature Trails Members
How far is The Mail Station from Gold Bar Nature Trails?
About 25 miles west on Highway 2 — typically 25–30 minutes. Gold Bar Nature Trails is at 16411 May Creek Rd, Gold Bar WA. We're at 19916 Old Owen Rd, Monroe WA 98272.
Why can't I just have packages delivered to my lot at GBNT?
Gold Bar Nature Trails is a gated, member-owned community. Delivery drivers often can't access individual lots — or won't attempt the gate — so packages get refused, held at a carrier facility, or returned. A Monroe mailbox removes that problem entirely.

Yes. We hold packages securely until you're ready to pick them up. Many GBNT members pick up on their way into town on weekends. For longer holds, our RV Smart Plan includes extended storage options.
Can I get USPS mail (not just packages) at your Monroe address?
Yes. With a private mailbox, you get a real street address that USPS treats as a legitimate delivery point. You'll need to complete USPS Form 1583 — we have it in-store and can walk you through it.

Yes — more than 10 current GBNT members have mailboxes with us. Many use our address as their primary receiving address for Amazon orders, business mail, and important documents.
Can I use a Monroe address for my legal documents and registrations?
