Virtual mailbox in Des Moines, IA: local stores and hubs, graded

Virtual mailbox in Des Moines, IA: two UPS doors in two ZIPs, only Fleur lists Saturday ground, and Beaver weekday pickup is 5:00 PM

If you need a virtual mailbox or a business address in Des Moines, you are shopping two UPS doors that do not share one clock. The UPS Store’s Des Moines index lists two mailbox pages in two ZIPs. ZIP 50310 is 2643 Beaver Ave in Beaverdale, next to Ace Hardware. ZIP 50321 is 4225 Fleur Dr in the Wakonda Shopping Center, about two miles north of the Des Moines airport. Fleur is the only one of those two that lists Saturday ground pickup, at 3:00 PM, and the only one open on Sunday. Beaver’s weekday air and ground pickup is 5:00 PM, an hour earlier than Fleur, and Sunday is closed. You can also buy a downtown line at Gravitate Coworking, 500 Locust Street, ZIP 50309. That is a coworking mailbox, not a third UPS door. You can buy a 503xx line from an app. That line is almost always a CMRA counter. A CMRA is a Commercial Mail Receiving Agency: a private business allowed to receive mail for other people. It is not a mailroom VirtualPostMail or US Global Mail staffs in Des Moines. VirtualPostMail’s published mailbox cities do not include Des Moines. Decide which product you need, then compare the scorecards.

Updated September 2026 · Verification key: operator-confirmed means the store or the company’s own page names this street. reported means we copied the street from a network map or an older list. We have not looked at every door.

Des Moines is not one counter. Two UPS doors sit in two ZIPs, and only Fleur lists Saturday ground, at 3:00 PM. Beaver weekday pickup is 5:00 PM, and Sunday is closed. Gravitate’s own page names 500 Locust Street and a mailbox membership floor of $65 a month. Anytime’s Iowa landing lists the same door from $9.99 a month. Those stickers disagree. West Des Moines, Urbandale, Clive, Ankeny, and Johnston are other UPS indexes. The address block on those cards does not say Des Moines. Altoona’s UPS city URL returned 404. The apps sell store-network CMRA shops. VirtualPostMail’s published mailbox cities are not Des Moines. US Global Mail’s help article names core rooms in Houston, New York, and Concord, CA. Concord is not Des Moines.

What this page is not

It is not a promise that every iPostal1 pin still answers the phone. Network maps churn. Franchise stores rebrand. We list a working set you can check in an afternoon, with the source on each row.

The UPS Store Des Moines index has two mailbox doors in two ZIPs. 2643 Beaver Ave is ZIP 50310 in Beaverdale, next to Ace Hardware, and weekday pickup is 5:00 PM. Sunday is closed. 4225 Fleur Dr is ZIP 50321 in the Wakonda Shopping Center, and it is the only Des Moines UPS door that lists Saturday ground pickup (3:00 PM). Fleur is also the only one of the two with Sunday hours. Gravitate Coworking names 500 Locust Street, Des Moines, IA 50309, with mailbox memberships starting at $65 a month. Anytime's Iowa landing lists that same door from $9.99 a month. West Des Moines has three UPS doors, and two of them list Saturday ground, but each address block says West Des Moines. Urbandale, Clive, Ankeny, and Johnston are separate UPS indexes. Altoona's UPS city URL returned 404. We did not find a company-run Des Moines mail hub on VirtualPostMail. Published VirtualPostMail mailbox cities we can name are Covina, CA; Claymont, DE; Brandon, FL; Henderson, NV; and Keller, TX. Concord, CA is a US Global Mail core room. It is not Des Moines. PostalAnnex did not name a Des Moines address on the page we opened.

Which mailbox product you are buying here

Company-run hub

A mailroom the company staffs. Des Moines does not get one we can name on a 503xx address. The rooms we can cite are VirtualPostMail in Covina, Claymont, Brandon, Henderson, and Keller, not Des Moines, and US Global Mail in Houston, New York, and Concord, CA. Mail handling is usually more consistent than a partner store. Banking / KYC and Google Business Profile grades stay F unless the vendor’s own documents say otherwise. KYC means Know Your Customer: the checks a bank uses to confirm who you are. Google Business Profile is the listing Google uses for Maps.

Store network / packing store

A retail CMRA. Counter, boxes, maybe a notary. In Des Moines that is a UPS door at 2643 Beaver Ave or 4225 Fleur Dr. iPostal1, Anytime, and PostScan resell stores like these. Mail grade is the store’s. Banking / KYC and Google Business Profile grades stay F.

Office-building listing

A suite number an app sells as a professional address. Sometimes a real receptionist. Sometimes a mailbox behind a locked floor. In Des Moines the door we can name is Gravitate Coworking at 500 Locust Street. The operator’s own page names a mailbox membership and a private mailbox number. Do not assume a bank will accept a callback.

That split is the point of this page. A 50310 Beaverdale counter and a 50321 Wakonda counter share a city name and almost nothing else on the clock. ZIP 50309 is downtown, and it is not a UPS ZIP on this table. VirtualPostMail’s published mailbox cities remain Covina, CA; Claymont, DE; Brandon, FL; Henderson, NV; and Keller, TX. We did not find a VirtualPostMail Des Moines company hub on their mailbox address list. A September 28, 2026 read of that list still named those five cities and did not name Des Moines or Iowa. US Global Mail’s cited core rooms remain Houston, New York, and Concord, CA. Concord is not Des Moines.

Scorecards for products that actually appear on this map

This is not legal advice. The grades below are product grades. They are not a promise a bank or the Iowa Secretary of State will accept the address.

iPostal1

Store network
Mail
C-
Largest network. Mail quality is the local store's job, not iPostal1's.
Banking / KYC
F
CMRA flag. Wrong product for Mercury, Relay, Stripe Issuing/Treasury, and similar KYC.
Google Business Profile
F
A rented mailbox is a virtual office under Google's written rules.

An app that sends your mail to a local packing store, a UPS Store, a coworking desk, or an office building. The local store handles the mail.

CMRA: Yes, every partner location is a CMRA

Official page

Anytime Mailbox

Mail
C
Useful if you already trust the local store. Price and quality move with the operator.
Banking / KYC
F
Still a CMRA. Switching from iPostal1 to Anytime does not clear a bank flag.
Google Business Profile
F
Mail-only occupancy is not a Google Business Profile location.

Same store-network model as iPostal1. Each store sets price and day-to-day handling.

CMRA: Yes, partner locations are CMRAs

Anytime Mailbox

PostScan Mail

Some company rooms, mostly stores
Mail
C+
Better if you land in a company room. Partner stores vary, like other store networks.
Banking / KYC
F
A nicer mailroom does not remove the CMRA registration.
Google Business Profile
F
Still a mailbox, not a staffed storefront you operate.

Some rooms the company runs, plus a larger set of partner stores. The stores are independent.

CMRA: Yes, hub and partner addresses are still CMRAs for USPS mail

PostScan Mail

VirtualPostMail is a company-run hub we cite in other cities. It has no Des Moines mailbox on its published address pages, so its scorecard does not apply to the 503xx rows below. The UPS Store names private mailboxes on its own mailbox-services pages. Gravitate Coworking names 500 Locust Street on its own downtown page and says billing and setup for the virtual mailbox go through Anytime Mailbox. PostScan’s Iowa page did not give a Des Moines pin we could copy. We did not find a PostalAnnex Des Moines address. You are grading the store. The logo on the app is secondary. Read the suite line on Form 1583. Form 1583 is the USPS form that lets the store accept mail for you.

Locations we can name

Des Moines listings collected September 28, 2026 from The UPS Store mailbox-services pages and the Des Moines city index, and from Gravitate Coworking’s downtown pages. Curated working set, not a complete census of every pin on those maps. West Des Moines, Urbandale, Clive, Ankeny, Johnston, Windsor Heights, and Waukee are not rows in this table. Altoona did not return a UPS city index.
Address Area Kind Verification What we know
2643 Beaver Ave
Des Moines, IA 50310		 Beaverdale Pack-and-ship storefront operator-confirmed The UPS Store names 2643 Beaver Ave, Des Moines, IA 50310 on its mailbox-services page. Private mailbox. The address block says Des Moines, IA 50310. The page does not list a suite. Phone listed as (515) 277-5001. The page lists store2597@theupsstore.com. A second number, (515) 350-7991, is a fax. The directions say SE Corner of Beaver Ave & Urbandale Ave, in the same shopping center as Ace Hardware. Urbandale Ave is the name in that sentence. It is not the town of Urbandale. Store hours are weekdays 8:00 AM to 6:30 PM and Saturday 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM. Sunday is closed. The page does not list notary hours. Air pickup is 5:00 PM on weekdays and 1:30 PM on Saturday. Ground pickup is 5:00 PM on weekdays and no Saturday ground. No Sunday pickup. Weekday pickup at 5:00 PM is an hour earlier than Fleur. It did not list a walk-in mailbox dollar amount we could copy.

4225 Fleur Dr
Des Moines, IA 50321		 Wakonda / Fleur Pack-and-ship storefront operator-confirmed The UPS Store names 4225 Fleur Dr, Des Moines, IA 50321 on its mailbox-services page. Private mailbox. The address block says Des Moines, IA 50321. The page does not list a suite. Phone listed as (515) 285-0113. The page lists store1983@theupsstore.com. A second number, (515) 285-0514, is a fax. The directions say the Wakonda Shopping Center, 2 miles north of the Des Moines airport, next to FAREWAY, behind McDonald's. Store hours are weekdays 8:00 AM to 6:30 PM, Saturday 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM, and Sunday 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM. Notary hours match those store hours, including Sunday. Air pickup is 6:00 PM on weekdays and 3:00 PM on Saturday. Ground pickup is 6:00 PM on weekdays and 3:00 PM on Saturday. No Sunday pickup. This is the only Des Moines UPS door on this table with Saturday ground. The store is open Sunday, and Sunday pickup is still not listed. Do not collapse this door with 2643 Beaver Ave. Different ZIP. Wakonda 50321. Still a CMRA. We did not call the store.

Anytime's Iowa landing lists it from $9.99/month. Those stickers disagree. The cited pages do not publish one price between those figures. The mailbox pages do not list opening and closing times for the mailbox counter, so call before you go. This is not a UPS door. ZIP 50309 is not 50310 or 50321. Still a CMRA. We did not call the store.

Three rows are operator-confirmed

Two rows rose to operator-confirmed because a UPS mailbox-services page names the address. Both are private mailboxes. Gravitate Coworking’s own downtown page names 500 Locust Street, so that row is operator-confirmed too. No row on this table stays reported. The Des Moines city index lists two store cards. Those two cards are the UPS rows on this table. They sit in two ZIPs. We did not add a third UPS door inside Des Moines.

Two doors, two ZIPs, and the clocks do not match

The two UPS ZIPs are 50310 and 50321. Weekday air and weekday ground are 5:00 PM at Beaver and 6:00 PM at Fleur. Saturday air is 1:30 PM at Beaver and 3:00 PM at Fleur. Saturday ground is 3:00 PM at Fleur and is not listed at Beaver. Sunday pickup is no pickup at both. Fleur’s store hours include Sunday. Beaver’s Sunday is closed. None of these mailbox pages listed a walk-in mailbox dollar amount we could copy.

Beaver weekday pickup is 5:00 PM

The UPS Store names 2643 Beaver Ave, Des Moines, IA 50310 on its mailbox-services page. Private mailbox. The address block says Des Moines, IA 50310. The named address does not include a suite. (515) 277-5001. The page lists store2597@theupsstore.com. A second number, (515) 350-7991, is a fax. The directions say SE Corner of Beaver Ave & Urbandale Ave, In the same shopping center as Ace Hardware. Urbandale Ave is the name in that directions sentence. It is not the town of Urbandale. The address block says Des Moines. Store hours are weekdays 8:00 AM to 6:30 PM and Saturday 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM. Sunday is closed. The page does not list notary hours. Air pickup is 5:00 PM on weekdays and 1:30 PM on Saturday. No Sunday air. Ground pickup is 5:00 PM on weekdays. No Saturday ground. No Sunday ground. Weekday pickup at 5:00 PM is an hour earlier than Fleur. The page did not list a walk-in mailbox dollar amount we could copy. The page lists regular hours and does not give a holiday schedule we will copy, so call before a holiday. Beaverdale 50310. Still a CMRA. We did not call the store.

Fleur is the only Saturday ground door

The UPS Store names 4225 Fleur Dr, Des Moines, IA 50321 on its mailbox-services page. Private mailbox. The address block says Des Moines, IA 50321. The named address does not include a suite. (515) 285-0113. The page lists store1983@theupsstore.com. A second number, (515) 285-0514, is a fax. The directions say Located in the Wakonda Shopping Center, 2 Miles North Of Des Moines Airport, Next to FAREWAY, Behind McDonald's. We quote FAREWAY because that is the spelling on the page. Store hours are weekdays 8:00 AM to 6:30 PM, Saturday 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM, and Sunday 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM. Notary hours match those store hours, including Sunday. Air pickup is 6:00 PM on weekdays and 3:00 PM on Saturday. No Sunday air. Ground pickup is 6:00 PM on weekdays and 3:00 PM on Saturday. No Sunday ground. Saturday ground at 3:00 PM is on this door alone among the Des Moines UPS rows. The store is open Sunday, and the pickup list still has no Sunday pickup. Do not treat an open Sunday as a Sunday truck. The page did not list a walk-in mailbox dollar amount we could copy. The page lists regular hours and does not give a holiday schedule we will copy, so call before a holiday. Do not treat 4225 Fleur Dr and 2643 Beaver Ave as one door. Different ZIP. Wakonda 50321. Still a CMRA. We did not call the store.

Locust is a coworking mailbox, and the prices disagree

Gravitate Coworking names 500 Locust Street, Des Moines, IA 50309 on its downtown coworking page and its downtown mailbox page. The mailbox page’s sample line is “500 Locust St. PMB xxx”. Keep the PMB. The operator says members should not put Gravitate in the address they use for mail. Unauthorized mail is returned to the sender. Phone listed on that page as (515) 207-8105. The mailbox membership line says starting at $65/month. Anytime’s Iowa index lists Des Moines - Locust St / 500 Locust St, Des Moines, IA 50309, from US$ 65.00 / month. Those two stickers agree on the monthly floor. Anytime’s Iowa landing lists the same door from $9.99/month, operated by Gravitate Coworking Downtown, with a mailbox placeholder and 30 mail pieces included. The landing also lists mail forwarding at $5.00 each. The landing does not call that figure an Iowa rate. The index and the operator page say $65. The landing says $9.99. We name which URL supplied the sticker. The cited pages do not publish one price between those figures. The same downtown page lists office space starting at $1,395/month and a day pass. Those are not the mailbox floor. The mailbox pages do not list opening and closing times for the mailbox counter, so call before you go. A day-pass line that says weekdays starting at 8:00 AM is not a mailbox-counter schedule. A retrieve of anytimemailbox.com/s/des-moines-500-locust-st returned a locations directory. It did not list pin detail we could copy. This is not a UPS door. ZIP 50309 is not 50310 or 50321. Still a CMRA. We did not call the store.

Towns that are not Des Moines

The UPS Store publishes separate indexes for West Des Moines, Urbandale, Clive, Ankeny, and Johnston. The address block on each card names that town, not Des Moines. We do not add them as Des Moines rows. A city URL for Altoona returned 404 on September 28, 2026. The cited pages do not publish an Altoona mailbox, and we do not relabel a neighboring town as Des Moines.

West Des Moines has three mailbox doors. Des Moines has two. Two of the West Des Moines doors list Saturday ground. Inside Des Moines, only Fleur does.

The West Des Moines index names 2800 University Ave Ste 420, West Des Moines, IA 50266. The address block says West Des Moines. (515) 221-9744. Fax (515) 221-9745. The page lists store1720@theupsstore.com. The directions say Clock Tower Square On Lower Level Next To Tires Plus. Store hours are weekdays 8:00 AM to 6:30 PM, Saturday 9:30 AM to 3:00 PM, and Sunday 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM. Air and ground pickup are 6:00 PM on weekdays and 2:30 PM on Saturday. No Sunday pickup. Saturday ground at 2:30 PM is real on this door, and the town name is still West Des Moines.

The same index names 3775 Ep True Pkwy, West Des Moines, IA 50265. Keep “Ep True” because that is the spelling on the page. The address block says West Des Moines. The named address does not include a suite. (515) 225-1066. Fax (515) 225-1504. The page lists store2528@theupsstore.com. The directions say 1 Block West Of Kum And Go Junction Of Valley West Drive And Ep True Parkway. We quote Kum And Go and Ep True Parkway. Store hours are weekdays 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM, Saturday 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, and Sunday 10:30 AM to 3:30 PM. Air and ground pickup are 6:00 PM on weekdays and 2:30 PM on Saturday. No Sunday pickup. This is the second West Des Moines door with Saturday ground. It is not Fleur.

The same index names 6750 Westown Pkwy #200, West Des Moines, IA 50266. Keep #200. The address block says West Des Moines. (515) 453-8426. Fax (515) 223-7323. The page lists store2618@theupsstore.com. The directions say A Minute East Of Des Moines Golf And Country Club. The golf club name uses Des Moines. The address block says West Des Moines. We do not move this door into the Des Moines table. Store hours are weekdays 8:00 AM to 6:30 PM, Saturday 8:00 AM to 1:30 PM, and Sunday 12:00 PM to 5:00 PM. Air pickup is 5:30 PM on weekdays and 12:00 PM on Saturday. Ground pickup is 5:30 PM on weekdays. No Saturday ground. No Sunday pickup. Same ZIP 50266 as University Ave. Different door.

The Urbandale index names 2815 100th St, Urbandale, IA 50322. The address block says Urbandale. (515) 270-4555. Fax (515) 270-1166. The page lists store3087@theupsstore.com. The directions say Located in Deerfield Crossing Shopping Center - South of Arby's. Store hours are weekdays 8:00 AM to 6:30 PM, Saturday 8:30 AM to 2:00 PM, and Sunday closed. Air pickup is 6:00 PM on weekdays and 1:30 PM on Saturday. Ground pickup is 6:00 PM on weekdays. No Saturday ground. Do not collapse this door with Beaver Ave. Beaver’s directions name Urbandale Ave. The address block on Beaver says Des Moines. The address block here says Urbandale.

The Clive index names 15920 Hickman Rd Ste 400, Clive, IA 50325. Keep Ste 400. The address block says Clive. (515) 987-7424. Fax (515) 987-9682. The page lists store5625@theupsstore.com. The directions say In The Strip Mall Behind Wendy's, The South Side Of Hickman Road! We quote Hickman Road because that is the wording on the page. Store hours are weekdays 7:30 AM to 6:30 PM, Saturday 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM, and Sunday closed. Air pickup is 6:00 PM on weekdays and 12:30 PM on Saturday. Ground pickup is 6:00 PM on weekdays. No Saturday ground.

The Ankeny index names 2310 SE Delaware Ave Ste G, Ankeny, IA 50021. Keep Ste G. The address block says Ankeny. (515) 965-8412. Fax (515) 965-8726. The page lists store4842@theupsstore.com. The directions say Delaware Market Place. Store hours are weekdays 8:00 AM to 6:30 PM, Saturday 9:00 AM to 2:30 PM, and Sunday 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM. Air pickup is 6:00 PM on weekdays and 12:30 PM on Saturday. Ground pickup is 6:00 PM on weekdays. No Saturday ground. No Sunday pickup, even though Sunday store hours are listed.

The Johnston index names 8805 Chambery Blvd Ste 300, Johnston, IA 50131. Keep Ste 300. The address block says Johnston. (515) 334-0753. Fax (515) 334-0810. The page lists store4709@theupsstore.com. The directions say In Westfield Plaza Off Nw 86th St, North Of Price Chopper. We quote Nw 86th St because that is the wording on the page. Store hours are weekdays 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM, Saturday 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, and Sunday 10:30 AM to 3:30 PM. Air and ground pickup are 6:00 PM on weekdays and 2:30 PM on Saturday. No Sunday pickup. Saturday ground at 2:30 PM is on this Johnston door. The town name is Johnston.

Anytime Mailbox’s Iowa index also names Windsor Heights and Waukee. Gravitate’s own page names 6611 University Ave Suite 200, Windsor Heights, IA 50324. The address block says Windsor Heights, not Des Moines. Anytime’s Iowa index lists that Windsor Heights door from US$ 35.00 / month. Anytime’s Iowa landing lists it from $11.89/month. Those stickers disagree. The cited pages do not publish one price between those figures. We do not add Windsor Heights as a Des Moines row. The Waukee card is 731 SE Alices Rd, Waukee, IA 50263, from US$ 9.99 / month on the index and from $9.99/month on the landing. The address block says Waukee. We did not open an independent storefront mailbox page for Waukee, so that card stays off this table. Reported only, not a recommendation. Do not recommend this unverified pin.

The same Anytime index names Cedar Rapids, Iowa City, Grinnell, and Ottumwa. Each address block names that city, not Des Moines. PostScan’s Iowa page is a state marketing page. It did not give a Des Moines pin list we could copy. A city URL at postscanmail.com/c/ia-des-moines.html returned 404. A slug at postscanmail.com/a/500-locust-st.html returned 404. The cited pages do not publish a PostScan Des Moines door. PostalAnnex’s Des Moines virtual-mailbox URL returned the generic Virtual Mailbox Services page. It did not name a Des Moines address. PostalAnnex does not publish a counter on the page we cite.

iPostal1 publishes a Des Moines city URL at ipostal1.com/des-moines-ia-virtual-address.php. A September 28, 2026 read returned a page error. The alternate city URL at ipostal1.com/virtual-offices-des-moines-ia.php also returned a page error. We cite the URLs. A page we could not recopy does not publish an address list. A network sticker does not clear Mercury, Relay, Stripe Issuing, or Google Business Profile.

If the point is a company-run mailroom rather than a 503xx line, use a published VirtualPostMail mailbox city or a US Global Mail core room. A Fleur packing store or a Locust coworking mailbox is not a VirtualPostMail company room in Des Moines. There is no Des Moines VirtualPostMail mailbox city on the published list. There is no Iowa VirtualPostMail mailbox city on that list.

Prices the pages publish

The UPS Store mailbox-services pages we used did not list a walk-in mailbox dollar amount we could copy. Gravitate’s downtown page names a mailbox membership floor of $65/month. Anytime’s Iowa index lists the same Locust door from US$ 65.00 / month. Anytime’s Iowa landing lists it from $9.99/month. We name which URL supplied the sticker. The cited pages do not publish one price between those figures. None of the operator pages we used listed a Des Moines-only forwarding price or a Des Moines transit time. The Anytime landing’s $5.00 forwarding line is not labeled as an Iowa rate. We do not guess one.

If you need banking or Google, stop shopping this table

A Beaverdale packing store and a Wakonda counter share a city name. Neither one is a bank operating address. An Iowa limited liability company has to keep a registered agent in this state. Service of process means accepting a lawsuit. The agent is the person or company that can accept a lawsuit. A mailbox holds paper. It does not accept a lawsuit. Iowa Code § 489.115 says each limited liability company and each registered foreign limited liability company shall designate and maintain a registered agent in this state. A registered agent must have a place of business in this state. The only duties of that agent, under the text we copied, are to forward process, notice, or demand, to handle the resignation notice in § 489.117, and to keep the agent’s information current. The text we copied on September 28, 2026 does not use the word “mailbox.” Iowa Code § 489.116 says a company may change its registered agent, or the address of its registered agent, by delivering a statement of change to the secretary of state. That is a lawsuit inbox, not a scan app. A 503xx address on Form 1583 is not a promise the Secretary of State or a bank will treat it as your registered agent’s place of business or your KYC operating address. Keller is a different state. It does not become a Des Moines registered agent by sitting next to this table. This is not legal advice, and it does not say a CMRA becomes your principal place of business. Google’s guidelines for representing your business say P.O. boxes and mailboxes at remote locations are not acceptable. A rented mailing address you do not operate from is not eligible. For Form 1583, start here and the USPS PS Form 1583 (June 2024) before you order checks. For which address banks actually accept, see the product comparison.
