| Receiving a parcel Hi guys,
I was wondering if it is possible for the sender of a parcel to send it to the Post Office for me to pick up, instead of me receiving it at home? its a suprise for one of my family members and i dont want them to see it being sent to me!  |

| Go round to your neighbours (if you know them well) and ask them to receive the package. If it's sent to them and they keep it, well - you know where they live

| Just call your post office and have them hold the package for pickup. Not sure if the ones there will, but the POs here will hold them if you would rather pick it up or won't be home when it'll be delivered.

| yup, what Chris said. just go to your post office, or call them and tell them you want them to hold the packages instead of delivering to your house |
