Sending inventory to partnered carrier program help!
My postcode is not eligible to use partnered carrier program, however the nearest postcode is only 5km away (I am in Brisbane). Using my own courier would be a lot more expensive. Has anyone been in a similar position? Can I use parcel point or somewhere that I can drop off so that I am within an eligible postcode?

Hi @Seller_igSvNFXZKEVgL,
Although in the help page it states, "Sellers with a pick-up address outside Amazon’s Partnered Carrier pick-up coverage should select the Non-Amazon Partnered Carrier option", I wanted to deep dive and see if the method you suggested works too.
It turns out that if you can send inventory to another location on your own (eg: the one which is 5kms away and within PCP coverage) and it has a proper set up for carrier to collect packages then you can add that address in step 1 of STA workflow during shipment creation👍
Please make sure to check the other conditions too. (LINK)
I hope this information helped🙂
