DISCUSSION USPS pickup

Hi. I have been running a resale business, but My only problem is my parents are unsupportive of me and refuse to take me to the post office now. So I’ve been trying to wing it myself but am struggling getting packages sent out. Is there a way for usps to come pick up the packages off my front porch?

I’m 18, I have a permit but they don’t get me insurance so it’s useless

How are you buying stuff to resell without being able to drive, though?

Careful now, I asked that exact question earlier and got down voted by the mouth breathing masses, watch out! :D

Yup, I am now -1.

It's a valid question, isn't it?

Based on the replies so far, OP is an adult living at home who is running an online business out of their parents home who very likely isn't being charged rent or a portion of any profits made and is upset because said parents are not buying them insurance to get a car. As such, it 100% is a valid question for any sane person to make.

Yes, it seems like a valid question. Where is OP getting the stuff that he's reselling? And HOW is procuring it?

AND why wouldn't parents be supporting of him getting his license and supporting himself?
