This may be an obnoxious comment, but if you haven't considered Amazon Locker, you should see if there's one near you. I can say from experience that there are a lot of them around even modestly sized cities and they can make this a lot easier.
- derefr 7y agoThere are indeed a few Amazon Lockers around my city, but none less than a 15 minute drive away. The closest thing Amazon would consider treating as a locker (i.e. have Amazon Logistics fulfill to) is my own local post office, which 1. is so understaffed that it takes just as long to pick up a package from it as from the FedEx across town, and 2. for some reason triggers "this item has special handling restrictions and cannot be delivered to your location" messages on 90% of Amazon's catalog. Also, with a Locker, you still have to get the thing home. Often I'm ordering things delivered because they're too big+heavy+awkward to lug home from a store myself (I don't own a car!), so the Locker doesn't really help in those cases. In many of those cases, the thing won't even fit in a Locker.
