Locked Bags and Caller Service

Users receiving very large quantities of mail can use "locked bags", which are numbered like PO boxes. In the United States, this service is called caller service, and the assigned number is called a caller number, although mail is typically addressed to "PO Box (caller number)."

Famous quotes containing the words locked, bags and/or service:

    We all live in a house on fire, no fire department to call; no way out, just the upstairs window to look out of while the fire burns the house down with us trapped, locked in it.
    Tennessee Williams (1914–1983)

    Some dead undid their bushy jaws,
    And bags of blood let out their flies;
    He had by heart the Christ-cross-row of death.
    Sleep navigates the tides of time;
    The dry Sargasso of the tomb
    Gives up its dead to such a working sea....
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    But when with moving accents thou
    Shalt constant faith and service vow,
    Thy Celia shall receive those charms
    With open ears, and with unfolded arms.
    Thomas Carew (1589–1639)
