If you're ordering from Amazon Spain; it's an article sold or stocked by them; and it's within a generous size/weight range, then you can have the item delivered to a post office for collection. 

In our case our address isn't on any of the maps that the couriers use, and rather than waiting at home for a phone call saying the courier can't find our house, I just get most of my purchases delivered to a local post office. 

You receive an email when the item is ready for collection, and have fourteen days to do so.

I don't want to slip up and inadvertently order something so am just going off memory, but when you're choosing the delivery address, look near the top of the page. There's an option there to choose between different choices - post offices, Amazon lockers, etc.

Can I ask, is it Amazon.es you are ordering from? If so, subscribe to Prime if you don't already. I was gobsmacked that the annual cost for Prime in Spain is only about 30€, compared to the £9 or so per MONTH ion the UK!!! Rip off Britain!!!

If you are using a laptop or desktop then I recommend you install google chrome as it will translate the webpage automatically when you load up a Spanish website! Hope that helps.

To add to the advice Jim has given you, this is the link where you can find places nearby to have delivery made to - https://www.amazon.es/gp/css/account/address/view.html?viewID=searchStores&storeSearchRedirectUrl=/a/addresses%3Fref=ya_address_book_add_store_address_link%26alertId=yaab-enterAddressSucceed&tag=cstareg0f-21

Hope it helps

I am with Amazon Prime in UK, do you know if this will also work for me in Spain regarding free deliveries and Movies, or do I have to sign up to Spanish Amazon as well?

Sadly, strangely?! they are separate companies and operate separately. 

Thankfully, you are moving to the cheaper location! 

You will need an Amazon.es Prime account.

To give you an idea, my first order, about 3 years ago, the delivery was 14€ and the Prime annual fee, at that time, was 20€... a no brainer really!

Hope it helps
