Can I Have a Package Delivered to My Airbnb?
One of the most common questions we receive comes from guests traveling for work.
“I’m traveling in for work and my boss is asking if they can mail me a package to the Airbnb. Does the address get mail?”
It’s a great question—and an important one.
Our Recommendation
Rather than shipping directly to the property, we recommend having your package sent to a secure retail pickup location.
Popular options include:
- Target
- Staples
- UPS Store
- FedEx Office
- Amazon Locker (when available)
These locations are designed specifically for receiving and securely holding packages until you’re ready to pick them up.
Why We Recommend This
More Secure
Packages delivered to residential addresses can occasionally arrive before you do, after you leave, or while cleaning and turnover activities are taking place.
Secure pickup locations eliminate those risks.
More Convenient
Many pickup locations offer extended business hours, making it easier to collect your package whenever it fits your schedule.
Better for Work Travelers
If you’re traveling for business, construction projects, healthcare assignments, consulting, or temporary work, pickup locations provide a dependable solution without depending on residential mail service.
Better for Short-Term Stays
Since guests are constantly checking in and out, using a retail pickup location avoids confusion and helps ensure your package reaches you—not someone else.
