Have you ever used The UPS store?

Question

Do I just bring my presents I want to send (wrapped) without a box and provide a box,wrap and seal and ship it?

I need to send presents to my fiance and his mom and I have never used the UPS store before. Have you used them or something similar? How was the experience?

Answer 1

I have used them before. You can bring gift-wrapped presents to the counter and they will package them very well (foam peanuts or bubble-wrap, larger box, sealed up, etc.). They do a great job of packaging, but it is not cheap. sometimes, depending on the size,shape, fragility of your package, it costs more to repackage the item, than the UPS shipping charge itself (so, it's like more than double what the straight UPS cost would be).

I only use them when I simply don't have time to get something boxed up myself.

Answer 2

They can box your stuff up. Of course, they'll charge for that in addition to the shipping.
