Shipping a Package Question


Kevin R.

Recommended Posts

Ok, here is the dealio. I am ordering some books online for school and I am fairly sure that I am not going to be at school the week they will come and don't want them to just set my shit on the porch for some jackass to steal.

 

Can you send a package to a UPS store or something and then pick it up?

 

Anyone know how to do this?

I think you can ship it to your house and then while it is in transit call UPS and request that they hold it for you at their facility. Call and ask them.

Ok. That is the info I got as well. I know they will come 3 times and then hold it but I don't want to go through that hassle when I can just straight up tell them to hold it.

 

I wasn't sure if there was something else you had to do.

 

Thanks.

You can do that just make sure that the person sending them to you makes sure to ship then an have to sign for the package cause if not they will leave it on the porch fool.

yeah. if they put signature confirmation, they wont leave it. if you put a note on door that says "take it to local hub so i can schedule pickup", they'll leave a little piece of paper on your door, it'll give you a number to call, you give them the doortag info, they'll call you within an hour and tell you when to come pick it up

No problem. I usually have them hold my packages for me too or ship them to my job.
