How to Send Physical Mail Online in 5 Steps
- Upload your PDF. Go to www.mailform.io and upload your document. Mailform accepts PDFs and postcards. You can pull files from your computer, Google Drive, Dropbox, or any major cloud storage service.
- Enter the recipient's address. Type in the name and mailing address of the person or business you're sending to. Mailform uses USPS address verification to confirm the address is valid and deliverable — including international addresses.
- Enter your return address. Provide a return address so the letter can be returned to you if it's undeliverable.
- Choose your print and delivery options. Select single or double-sided printing, color printing, envelope type, and mail class. Add a return envelope, request Certified Mail with tracking, or upgrade to FedEx or UPS overnight delivery.
- Pay and confirm. Pay by credit card, PayPal, or Apple Pay. No account needed. You'll receive an email confirmation immediately, and a tracking link if you selected Certified Mail or an expedited option.

Mailform vs. Competitors
Other services like Lob and PostGrid are built for enterprise developers with APIs, high monthly minimums, and complex setup. DocuPost handles small volumes but lacks expedited carrier options. Mailform is designed to be the simplest option for both individuals and businesses — no API required, no minimum volumes, no monthly fees. Just upload, address, and send. Starting from $2.99, Mailform is also among the most affordable options for one-off mailings.
