The postal service at Forget Me Not at Buganvillas is very good. They run a postal service 6 days a week.

I use the free Correos service - CityPaq.  You register for CityPaq on the Correos website, download the App or go online and select the CityPaq terminal nearest to you.

You then copy the address given, including the 7 digit alphabetic code in front of the name and give that as the address to send to.  Parcels up to around 25kg can be accommodated - when the parcel gets to correos they send you an email with a tracking number, then when it gets put in the bin, they send you an email or a notification to CityPaq app if you have it with a barcode. You take that to the terminal you have selected, scan the barcode and hey presto the correct door pops open and there’s your parcel.

It’s a fantastic system - I tend to use the CityPaq terminal in the Consum at Vera Playa

DNI is the Spanish Citizens ID number; I don’t recall if there is a drop down for NIE / Passport but if not, just put your NIE number or passport number in.

Site is Spanish only, but if you open it in Google Chrome it should translate it for you (if you have that switched on in the Google Chrome settings)

It should recognize Palomares as your residential address - your closest CityPaq terminal will be at the Consum at Vera Playa
