Has anyone ever got FedEx to hold the package at a location for you to pick up?  I see this is an option in their website but wondered if it added risk?

I do it all the time if that carrier is the one being utilized.

 
I just had one held yesterday evening and picked it up this morning.  Worked like a charm and I would do it again, if I run into difficulty like I did with the aforementioned package.    No reason to worry, just casually walk in get what you are getting and leave.  I did take a circuitous route on the way home but thats just me and my paranoid brain. 

Aint

 
Has anyone ever noticed that when FedEx sends the truck out, about an hour later it goes back to the facility to tenure? I know what this means, but within 2 mins of tenured at local Fed location, it shows delivered. Very odd. 

 
So when you set it to hold, are you guys just selecting from the options they give you? Like a fedex office or something? And you can pick up the same day as expected delivery?

 
I use the options given on their site. And yes same day as expected delivery and usually earlier than if it was being delivered to my house.

So you can set it to hold at --- -- shipping store thats close to you and pick it up the same correct?

 
I've been picking it up at the local office off and on for years!  That way I can get my hands on it sooner instead of waiting around all day.  :13_upside_down:

 
I was always under the impression that signing for a package is a no no.. Am I over paranoid? I’ve always tried to make sure sender ships with NO SIG required. Have some landed that I never picked up due to my paranoia. Maybe it me, haha 🤷‍♂️

How many here have no probs signing for package at their local PO?

  7. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 lol I am actually surprised it is a real ID. I needed those documents because my license had been expired for over a year and I had to start all over. Nothing was in the system. It was a huge mess. I had no clue I was signing up for Real ID. They asked me for the exact same documents that I needed for a State ID Card.
  8. S @ soupson: bless your heart buddy. no sense of grammar or proper insults/jokes. you need this place in ways i can’t comprehend
  9. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Sweet Ol' Me asked about Real ID, Stoup. Are you responsive to emails ? LMAO
  10. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: I smell some Stoup. Is Stoup's on ?
  11. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda You win. I am lost. Thought you were surprised your license was a Real ID, now you say you provided those items.
  12. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda I was under the impression that you'd need all of the points to get a real ID . I'd check it's validity if you're gonna fly domestic any time soon, just to make sure. Not to tell you what to do, sorry -
  13. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 In my state to get a Real ID, I need SS card, Birth Certificate and two proofs of residency. Which I am positive I had to provide to get a new ID when it had been expired.

  15. B @ bigblueallda: I haven't flown in an airplane in 20 years lol. Can't recall the last government building I have been in either. According to the symbol it tells me I should have on my ID to make it a Real ID I do have one in my state

  18. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda are you sure you have a Real ID ? I mean , they really want 6 points of proof and 1 for your addy and 1 for your SSN. Did you maybe get it done and forgot and flew out of the country or something ?
