What are the options for forwarding mail from the USA to Thailand without a local address?

Dawn **********

I use traveling mailbox. They scan, store and forward. Most items I just print out from the scan pdf. Others I store.

If I go to the US, I forward to myself there. When I have enough items, like once a year, I will forward to Thailand. The max. I ever paid was under $10 for the forwarding.
