I usually do this for all big purchases. It used to be free, now there is a surcharge. In addition, my UPS customer center is no longer an option for pickup, probably due to COVID. The only options were UPS stores, Staples etc.
I have a UPS store within easy walking distance. However, I'll probably just have it delivered to my home, as it's very doubtful the package will be there when it opens.
For the last iPhone I had to call them or chat with them. Mind is a little fuzzy on it. But they changed it, and since I had UPS My Choice, it didn't cost me anything.
I will wait till it hits Alaska, then I will try to do the same thing. If it doesn't work, then I'll just wait to have it delivered. Was going to take that day off anyway.
