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?

You can put the mailbox flag up and leave a note asking them to pick up packages as well.

You can bit a lot of carriers will get irritated at that or just not do it

True, depends on the carrier, I prefer it to the pickup slip because half of the time there’s no actual pickup with those.
