Help Anyone have experience using a PO box/rental mailbox for receiving SN supplies?

[kirby555]

I can currently figuring out how to receive supplies (currently in US), I can't really have them delivered to my house due to my living situation. Does anyone have experience using a PO box to get shipments? I am specifically importing SN from MDS, so I figured I could use a PO box to try to avert any welfare checks. Would getting a PO box require me to give the office my real address? I read somewhere about using a prepaid card, since I just want to create as many layers of separation as possible to prevent any checks. If anyone has experience I would much appreciate it.

Just a small potentially helpful tip, if you get a mail box at the UPS Store, your address is a physical street address instead of a PO box

Yeah I was looking at UPS as a possibility, is there any difference delivery wise?

Hm not really... If you get a package that's too big to fit in the box, you can get it from the stores front desk during business hours. They never questioned anything I ever received, they handle incoming mail and packages from any carrier, etc, 10/10 would recommend, good luck to you

Okay gotcha, my one worry would be any authorities seeing my SN and tracing my real name and address with the box

I don't think welfare checks or any kind of law enforcement scrutiny due to SN shipments is something you need to worry about in the US. I think that only happens in the UK and maybe some European countries.
