Question: What's the best way to do a change of address for my magazines? I'm moving 57 miles away to a new apartment. I want to know what would be the best way to inform my magazine subscriptions to be sent to my new address. I read that the USPS will only forward them for up to 60 days. How do I get them sent to me after the 60 days?

Answer: Hi I worked in the forwarding department and my best advice is for you to contact the magazine. We would send a form 3579 change of address to the periodical publishers & many times they took forever to change your address if at all. We forward the magazine for 60 days, hoping you will notify the sender. Then after that we notify the sender of your new address for up to 60 days. If you notify your publisher you did not recieve an issue due to a move they will more than likely send you out another. Good luck with your new move!\nPS Their address is listed in the first 5 pages, the editorial section, or the last 5 pages of the magazine. For the USPS it always starts with "Postmaster send address change to", but if you find another addresses sometimes listed for customers, use that instead.. . .I think ours come in bulk to them & get put in their "to do" pile.
