A mail forwarding service provides a mailing address (usually in your domicile state) and collects your mail. You let the forwarder know where you are (or will be) and they bundle your mail and send it to you. Some services will scan mail for viewing on the web, watch for critical pieces of mail to come in, etc.
Note: the county where you domicile can affect vehicle inspections, what you pay for registration, insurance, etc. If you intend to use your mail forwarding service address as your domicile address take note of the county where the forwarded is located.
