Temp mailbox while travelling

[sparky604]

Does anyone know how "General Delivery" at Canada Post works? I'm in Carlyle, Saskatchewan for 4 months and have no fixed address at the moment. Staying at a motel currently but not sure where I will be staying in two days time, it might be elsewhere.

Is there a way of receiving mail while you are travelling? I need to make an order with Happy Vaper in the next week!

I might be wrong, but I think you can ask Happy Vaper to send your parcel to General Delivery and you can pick it up at the Post Office counter.

I have 2 nieces and a brother in law in Regina, but I think that is about 100 miles or so north west of you. Would that work for you at all?

Regina is a 2 hour drive, which is a bit much. I'll see if I can get time to stop at the Post Office today and ask about General Delivery, I don't want to get a post box for one package

If you email Jack before you order, you may be able to make arrangements to have it shipped to where you are.

Or you could always bribe the desk people at a nearby hotel/shop to accept a package for you

that said packages marked general delivery hold for pick up will remain in the post office. just need to be sure which postal outlet you get it sent to

lmk Adam. I am sure I have a relative near you.

My brother works there. I could ask him about being your contact - as long a what you're getting is not illegal. He's an RCMP officer.

PM me if you're interested.

(No, he doesn't consider juice illegal ;-)

Check with the local post office.

If Carlyle doesn't have "door delivery" - then let them know you will be receiving packages - and they'll tell you how to have them addressed. It's fairly simple.

If they do have "door delivery" - check with the post office to see what temp arrangements can be made for you.

Most hotels will hold packages for guests - but not once you've checked out. So the post office is usually your best source of info (and mail!).
