Can you ship an online order directly to the post office to be picked up?

Question

I want to order something online, but I don't want it sent to my house. I want it to be sent to the Post Office and then pick it up from there. Before I've had packages sent to my house but I wasn't home so they just took them to the nearest post office where I'd show them my i.d. trouble free. How do I do this ordering something online?

Answer 1

You can get a PO box.

You can also request that no packages be left when you're not home. If ou live on a "rural route" your carrier will have a form you can fill out and sign.

Lastly, when you order something see if you can get signature conformation of insured for over $100, that way if you're not there, it will go back to your PO.

Good Luck
