Fedex hold mail packages

FedEx offers a "Hold for Pickup" service, which allows you to have your package held at a FedEx location for pickup at a later time. Here's how it works:

How to request a Hold for Pickup:

  1. When you ship a package with FedEx, you can request a Hold for Pickup by selecting this option during the shipping process online or by contacting FedEx customer service.
  2. You can also request a Hold for Pickup by contacting the shipper or the recipient and asking them to request a Hold for Pickup.

How it works:

  1. When a package is shipped with a Hold for Pickup request, FedEx will hold the package at a designated location (such as a FedEx Ship Center or a FedEx Office location) until the recipient arrives to pick it up.
  2. The recipient will receive an email or phone notification with the pickup details, including the location, date, and time the package will be available for pickup.
  3. The recipient can then go to the designated location during the specified time to pick up the package.

Benefits:

  1. Convenience: Hold for Pickup allows the recipient to pick up the package at a time that is convenient for them, rather than having it delivered to their home or office.
  2. Security: Hold for Pickup provides an added layer of security, as the package is held at a secure location until the recipient arrives to pick it up.
  3. Flexibility: Hold for Pickup allows the recipient to pick up the package at a different location or at a different time if needed.

Fees:

  1. There may be a fee for Hold for Pickup, depending on the type of package and the location. The fee is typically a flat rate or a percentage of the shipping cost.
  2. The fee is usually waived if the package is picked up within a certain time frame (e.g., within 5 business days).

Tips:

  1. Make sure to request a Hold for Pickup when shipping a package, as it cannot be changed after the package has been shipped.
  2. The recipient should receive an email or phone notification with the pickup details, so make sure to provide the correct contact information.
  3. If the recipient is unable to pick up the package during the specified time, they may be able to reschedule the pickup or have the package delivered to their home or office.
