I was specifically talking about picking up packages at FedEx and UPS retail store locations not the USPS (United States Postal Service)
The USPS usually has a line of 5-10 people and takes me 30 minutes but I go there about twice a year.
FedEx and UPS are quick for me.
- ThePadawan 5y agoOh wow, I totally missed that you were talking about forwarding packages across deliverers. That's wild, but makes sense!
- lizknope 5y agoI don't mean across delivery companies. When I order something and it is being shipped via FedEx I can login to my FedEx account and see the package tracking info. From there I can redirect the package to one of the multiple FedEx / Kinko's retail stores in my area. Then I walk in show my driver's license and can get my package. This is great if the package requires a signature and I won't be home during the day. UPS has a similar web site and redirection options.
- ThePadawan 5y agoOh, I see. That's a lot less useful since there are only two deliverers in my country that have pick-up locations anywhere within cities. All the others (especially UPS) are way more oriented towards business customers nationwide, so there are basically no sellers using them for B2C shipping.
