Ordering Diapers

[Guest DL but not AB]

I'm going on a very long coach trip next year, and as I still live with my parents, I can't have them delivered to my house. Buying diapers would be difficult in-store, but I've heard about having stuff shipped to a UPS delivery office. Is there an equivalent of this in the UK?

Thanks

Yes, it's called 'Poste Restante' and is equivalent to general delivery in the USA - see here.

You'd have to arrange it with the sender, though, who might have reservations because I'm pretty sure it's not commonly used. Also, you'd have to use Royal Mail rather than a courier.
