messyman Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 My partner and I are going to Mexico in a few months and I was wondering what the adult diaper selection is like there. Could we get a few bags shipped to the resort with minimal hassle or are we better of cramming as many as we can into the bags to make room for bringing stuff home? Link to comment
WetDad Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 I assume you are flying. In that case, pack a suitcase full of your diapers, wipes and creams. Luggage with nothing but medical supplies fly for free. On the return trip, fill it up with high grade tequila. ? 1 Link to comment
AbabeBill Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 You can check with the hotel you’re staying at, but they should be happy to receive any package for you, even prior to your stay. Then be sure your favorite diaper supplier, will ship to there. If not, you can still always ship them yourself. It would just be an extra step. Link to comment
messyman Posted December 29, 2019 Author Share Posted December 29, 2019 Anyone know of a good Mexican diaper suppliers? Or maybe US based company that ships to Mexico at a reasonable rate? It would be very convenient to just have a few bags meet us there. Link to comment
Angela Bauer Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Given that a large percentage of adult diapers sold in the USA are made in Mexico, most of the same kinds of businesses sell adult diapers in the USA sell them in Mexico. My experience in Mexico is that in supermarkets and mass stores such as Target in Mexico the selection is bigger than in the USA. Link to comment
beallucanb Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 I would ship them to the hotel in your name. Link to comment
DiaperedAllTheTime Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Diapers and Mexico are very similar to what you buy here at the box store pharmacies. I would highly recommend packing an entire suitcase with diapers purchased in America. Generally customs will xray and even search most bags so be prepared for this. If you ABSOLUTELY have to buy diapers in Mexico they sell Tena Slip Overnights and Depends Maximos. These diapers are basically one wetter quitters and you will need to change all day if you habe to take this route. P.S. I just got back from Mexico. When I left I sent a case of Rearz Inspires to my hotel. I left three weeks later and the diapers had not arrived yet. Link to comment
vvp39 Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 I've heard from quite a few fellow hobbyists that the Mexican mail service is problematic, and a lot of them won't do a deal that involves shipping to or from Mexico. Link to comment
Cruiser 03 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Don't drink the water unless you take a truckload of diapers with you ,if your IC remember that medical equipment flyes free including diapers ,as long as there is only diapers and medical equipment or devices in the bag or box ,do not mix other "junk" in with them .Sent from my SM-T810 using Tapatalk Link to comment
messyman Posted January 1, 2020 Author Share Posted January 1, 2020 Any idea how good the Amazon shipping is there? I found out that they carry Abenas. Link to comment
DL-Boy Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Not sure how well Amazon gets to Mexico but about the Abena from Amazon, be aware that they sell both the original plastic backed Abri-Form and the Abri-Form Premiums which are cloth-like backing. If you want plastic backed Abena, make sure the listing doesn't say "PREMIUM". Also make sure nobody in the comments mentions that they got the cloth type model when they ordered that listing.

Penry Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Messyman, Based on what everyone has said in answer to your question, I don't think it would be a good idea to source diapers while in Mexico. Penry Link to comment

Only free if you have a medical reason, but apparently they never check that and just assume you need it, cause who would use diapers with a good reason.. Link to comment
