That is a good service to know about when needed. In Switzerland, with the Swiss Post we have the possibility to get a parcel delivered in any post office, any parcel drop location (many kiosk and local shops) and some lockers. Ok the Postal company knows everything about you but rando stranger and companies will not get your home address and you can get parcel delivered anywhere in the country for whatever reason (travel, late opening times, next to work place or place of transit...). And if you get a letter this way, it's redirected to your home.
