Hi guys just wanted to know how you receive mail or small packages here in formentera

There is no facility to receive post at our apartment and I have noticed some mailboxes on the outside of apartments have been lets say vandalised.

I know the post off is around by the square so wondering is that where it is received or where perhaps you send it to ?

Again thanks in advance for all the support and help we get on this forum👍

Best regards Binz

For small packages (that may not fit in the mail box for example) one possible solution is to get friendly with a local bar owner (or other business) but bar owners opening hours are generally the longest and get them to agree to take packages in for you you - so you can use them as a delivery address when ordering/asking people to send you things.

With Amazon, you also get the choice of certain delivery locations as well as all the locker locations - albeit that depends on what you've ordered as not everything is permissible to be delivered to them.

Hi Binz

I do exactly what George has suggested (and I make sure the barstaff get a tip!)

Cheers

Steve
