Winter shipping . . Ideas
Does anyone know if the Post Office still offers "General Delivery" ? When I was a teenager and ran away from home, I would call Mother and ask her to send money to me at General Delivery addressed to the next town I was planning to vandalise " I would go in and ask for mail in my name. No street address required.
Why this ? If you Priority Mail a box to MsKitty, Sparta, Tn. "care of General Delivery" she can pick it up at P.O. The plants go from Airplane to truck to P.O. then into MsKitty's car without exposure to freezing weather ! I mailed a box to a man in Ohio last winter and the mailman left it on his doorstep untill he got home from work. All was frozen x0x## Logos

Re: Winter shipping . . Ideas
I believe you could get signature confirmation and that should do the same thing, but check with the post office. If you don't sign for it, or someone there at the address, then I don't believe it would be left there.
