You can Register a Business and have all vehicles registered to your Business - You will need to provide a Street address for your business (Name) that could be a trusted relative's address that could contact you in the event of Aust Post delivering letter. If no trusted relatives most Solicitors and Accountancy Firms are able to provide an actual street address (at a cost). Most transactions are able to be done on line.
Do not leave old address for car and licence it is illegal and they may be cancelled without you being aware.

Get a PO box & then have your mail held at the PO or redirected from it to wherever you are in Australia.

You don't have to have a street address, a PO box is an actual mailing address.

Pensioner discount available on hold and/or redirection.

That works. However, it doesn't work for insurance policies vehicle/van, registration of vehicle/van, licence as each of those require a residential address which can be different to the postal address.

Yes it does, there's absolutely no difference between a street address & a post box address they are both legal/valid address's as far as ANY type of mail is concerned.

If someone doesn't have a street address a PO box address is more than good enough.

If you're on the road traveling full time, when filling in forms that require a street address just write NOT APPLICABLE & supply a PO box number. It'll do sufficiently.

In NSW a living person requires a residential address for Motor Vehicle registration, whereas a Company may have an NSW postal address only.

In Western Australia you can not use a PO Box for vehicle registrations

What about a dead person, how do they go?

There's no difference between a business PO box & a residential PO box.

I retired from Australia Post 8 years ago.

Australia Post may accept either for delivery, but Motor Registration probably dont' accept a PO Box as a garaging address (too cramped I suspect and not meeting housing regulations!)

As others have also said, DD, Aust Post quite obviously accepts a PO box as an "address" but you seem reluctant to accept the facts.

Motor Registration Branches Straya-wide REQUIRE a physical, residential address for the registration of a private vehicle/van. It is acceptable that a PO box is provided along with the physical address for postal advice - or that an email address is provided as a method of receiving advice etc.

Similarly, insurance companies REQUIRE a residential address for calculation of the premium as various postcodes/addresses attract differing premiums. In fact, the policy application contains the question, "Where will the vehicle/van be garaged?" It is quite acceptable to provide a PO box (or email address) for receiving advice etc once policy is in place.

PS - I think in the case of a dead person their mail goes to the Dead Letter Office.

Hi all,

I have pondered this dilemma regarding my Registration & Insurances and other bills as there has been an issue in SA from the relevant governing bodies with precise rules of engagement. And yes it has been a problem so to counterbalance these issues I claim my daughters home address as my PPR. (Principle Place of Residence) All mail goes directly to her (and she lets me know if there is any urgent matter that requires action Opppssss.. if I get a ticket she'll know about it though! confuse ) This seems to be acceptable by all concerned parties.

Hope that helps Gwynnie

To register a vehicle in NSW you can't register in a deceased persons name, nor in any personal name without residential address other than as a Company. It is not the PO box difference it is in the entity owning the registration.

''That's exactly what I've said in previous posts, a PO box is a valid address as far as AP is concerned. Check your reading glasses.''

''We spend a total of 6 months away every year, we get our mail held at the PO when we're away on our numerous trips'' '' Never lost an item as I still have connections at the local Delivery Centre & PO.''

''For the sake of harmony & not descending into a slanging match that so often occurs on this forum let's agree to disagree re other issues.
''Jest sayin'.''

rockylizard · Guru

Gday...

Motor vehicle/caravan registration REQUIRES a physical address and an insurance policy REQUIRES a physical address where the vehicle/van "will be garaged".

BUT - a PO box can be used as a POSTAL address but is not acceptable as a PHYSICAL address.

Yeah - otherwise, let's agree to disagree on other issues ......... well hmm we tend to disagree on most issues.

Cheers - John
