Hello Andyleonardi,
We can ship to a PO Box but only USPS shipping methods will be available as UPS cannot deliver to a PO Box.
does this also apply to international shipping?
Yeah, UPS international won’t deliver to a PO Box, sadly (in Australia, anyhow. I presume that’s true everywhere).
Hello DropBearHunter,
Steve is correct. PO Boxes are usually owned/provided by your local postal service (here in the US that is United States Postal Service, or USPS), which is where the term Post Office Box comes from. As a result other competing postal services like UPS or FedEx usually cannot deliver to those post office boxes.
Some of these postal companies, like UPS, offer their own equivalent. Those will usually be associated with a street address though, rather than a PO Box address, and may or may not accept mail from competing delivery services.
There are also some countries that don't offer door to door mail delivery that have a PO Box equivalent for residents. Those usually can accept mail from other postal services.
In general though if you have a local postal service that does deliver door to door and you have a PO Box with them, it is likely that other postal services will not be able to deliver to it.
right, thanks.
USPS worked fine where I live now.
but after a few false deliveries of letters to my future place, I‘d rather not have the costoms notifications end up in someone else’s letterbox.
especially my neighbors who go on vacation for months.
so I’m considering to rent a PO box.
