Mailbox & package receiving
US mail and Amazon don't reliably deliver into Mexico — most expats rent a US-side mailbox (often just across the border, e.g. San Ysidro/Otay Mesa/Calexico) and pick up or have it forwarded.
Moving companies (menaje de casa)
Cross-border household moves need a "menaje de casa" permit and itemized inventory if you're importing residency-linked household goods duty-free.
Legal services
For residency, property, or business matters, look for a licensed abogado (attorney) — ideally bilingual and experienced with expats.
