Tip
If you live in an urban area and don’t have a safe drop-off spot, our self-service stations such as our pickup stations and Austrian Post stations make a great personal drop-off spot. While they won’t be right outside your front door, they are conveniently located close to your home. Parcels can be delivered, picked up, and posted 24/7. All within easy walking distance, even in your slippers. Just use our receiving options to forward parcels there with permanent effect.
