How about a place that will scan my packages for me?
Staples scans UPS.

I got from Katz's a few years ago and was very happy.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

Not reliable
Ive rarely had an issue. The regular delivery guy picks it up generally. Worse comes to worse if the pickup doesnt happen then go to Post Office.

Unless you mean the recent disruption with USPS will impact reliability.

When I bought a couple of years ago, all local stores were offering 3 basic options, for around 375, 425, and 450. Most went with the 450 option.

They fill up before 9:00 am every morning. I would assume you need to camp out...
