I really wish I could pick up Amazon packages at a lockbox. I live in San Francisco, and Amazon's checkout process tells me the closest location I could pick up a package is at Berkeley's student union, across the bay, which is a good 30-40 minute drive (each way) unless I'm very lucky with bridge traffic. It's an hour using transit, including two transfers and 15 minutes of walking, which isn't really doable if I have anything but the smallest of packages to pick up.

I get that real estate is expensive in SF, but it's a little insane we can't do local pickups. It would be cool if Amazon could make an arrangement to drop packages off at USPS post offices; there's one a few blocks from me. Not as convenient as delivery to my apartment, but eliminates problems around package theft and delivery drivers unable to get into my building.

Where do you live in San Francisco? There are tons of Amazon Lockers there where you could pick up a package.

Here is a search on Google Maps.

Maybe ask your local whole foods to add some Amazon lockers? They added those to the whole foods next to me.

They don't have lockers in those Amazon Go store's? That is très weird.
