Where else? If I order drugs to somebody else's address, they'll get the drugs and not me.

Send it to a friend of yours that doesn't do drugs but will give it to you. Edit: reason I wrote that, is that I remember one time, some dude found weed on the street, and since he didn't smoke he gave it to hit friend. So the same here. (But it's a joke cause mail+drugs+address+police no bueno)

  That's not a way to treat a friend. You would let the Fed's bust their house?

  Nice friend, incriminating your friend like that. Order it to yourself, say you didn't order it and threw it away.

  Why would your friends think that is a good idea?

Well, most people just put a fake name, or name of a previous tenant. Houses change ownership, people make mistakes.

  That's actually a red flag, and heavily discouraged by the community in question, so 'most' definitely don't do that.

  This is in fact the last thing you should do according to every single buyer guide. Postal service would assume there is something fishy going on.

    Rarely in the UK people pay for a redirect. Other than that the Postal Seervice don't really know who lives where. If your getting post for an ex tenant, that redirect isn't in place.

      But the postman who delivers the post will notice that he's delivering the odd bit of post for somebody who doesn't live there.

        I frequently receive mail for people who haven't lived in this house for a decade, so I challenge your assumption. The postman isn't paid enough to care.

        I get at least 2 or 3 letters a week for previous residents of my house (and I've owned it for 10 years). Probably 1 or 2 packages a year too. (Yes I follow the recommended process for dealing with it.)

" It's my address but someone else's name We deliver to addresses rather than names so our advice here would be to put a cross through the address and write on the item 'Not known at this address' or, 'No longer lives here' and post the item at your convenience - you won't need to apply any postage. Where applicable we will return the item to the sender hopefully allowing them to update their records. "
