My friend in the US wants to send me a parcel and I was wondering if there was someway to do it without having to drive to the post office?

Yes the Postal Service will pick up a parcel at your home. And contrary to other answers there is no 'extra' charge.
You can go to the USPS.com website, and do a one-time download of the Click N Ship software. You can print the label and pay online. Just make sure that you know the weight of the object.
Then you can stay online and order a carrier pickup. The carrier will pick up your parcel (s) and leave a receipt in your mailbox. It's really very easy.
An don't forget that the Postal Sercvice does not have a premium for Saturday delivery.
Or you could decide to use the competitors and pay a much higher price.
I am a carrier and pick up many parcels at homes on my route from eBay sellers. It saves them a trip to the post office.
Best wishes!

You can arrange pick ups with companies like fedex and parcel force...

yeah, you can even have the united states postal service come and pick up your package. They are a lot cheaper than ups and fedex.

Yes, if you're willing to pay extra. And I hope they have most of the packing materials available at home.
