Which UPS store in the US (Buffalo) do you guys pick up from?

Hey guys,

I want to grab a bmw performance exhaust from tischer and have it shipped to buffalo...i know ups will hold parcels so i can go pick it up sometime...i was wondering which ups store you guys use?

or if there are better alternatives to storing @ ups?

I am in Toronto.

Thx

There are some downfalls to this location...its practical since its close to the border but the hours suck.

did you call the UPS store in question? Some UPS stores DO NOT hold packages.....remember they are franchises and each franchise seem to have their own rules (From my experience at least.)

I'd find out if they will hold your pkg first, some only hold for 1 week max. I usually send shipments to www.cbiusa.com, atleast they'll hold it indefinitely for you for however long you want and you pay a minimal holding fee. It's also not too far from the border.
