A drop location is essential if you want to take social-engineering seriously; not only does it allow you to be anonymous, but it allows you to dodge any bills that companies send out. If you have managed to stay anonymous online, you will have to stay anonymous offline too. There are multiple ways this can be done, some are easy, some are not.
Without further ado, here you have a list of useful methods to get drop addresses to us
Using carriers to your advantage
Some carriers call you a few minutes before your package is about to arrive. If you use an address that is located on your street but does not exist or you use a neighbors address, you can tell him you will be outside shortly and then you can wait for him at the street corner. This way, neither the company, nor the carrier will have your address. This method only works if you know the carrier will call you. Some countries do not have this privilege, but there is a fix for this:
Most carriers, such as UPS or DHL will have drop off points in the area and when the carrier cant find the address (or no neighbor is there to take the package) they will drop the package off at a drop off point. You will then be able to collect the item from there. But be careful, you might have to show your ID card and your tracking number for the item, but no worries, they will not scan your ID. Cameras in the drop off point might be a problem tho.
If you know the company does not bill, or you have a blacklisted address, you might be able to misspell the address and the item will still go to your house, since the carrier uses common sense to determine where it should go. If it doesn't go to your house then it will end up at a drop off point.
(Example 1: Teststreet 224 = Teststreet 2244, provided there is no 2244 on your street)
(Example 2: Teststreet 224 = Testst. 224)
Some carriers allow you to specify safe spots without you having to log in with a verified account. Make sure to check if this is possible, because if it is, you can just use a random address in your area, such as the house of your neighbor who isn't home, and say they can leave it at the door. After the delivery truck was in your street or the tracking shows 100%, you can go over there and collect your package.
Using dead addresses
Some countries have the privilege of requiring no signature for receiving a package. You can just use a dead address, like a house for sale at the moment. If the carrier allows you to specify a safe location, visit the house before the SE and then look for a safe place. In the tracking options, specify a safe place (e.g. "place the package behind the plant next to the garage door" or "leave it behind the gate in the garden")
The house for sale method also works for countries that require a signature, although this is a lengthy process. You will have to camp at the house and wait for the carrier. If the carrier provides a time window for his arrival, then you will not have to wait a long time for the package. But if the carrier arrives at your desired location, you can just come out from the back (or the garden) and collect the package. Make sure the address does not look like a house in Detroit , but one that is lived in. If the carrier asks why you come out from the back, either say you were in the process of leaving, or say your pet has to stay inside because it has to go to the vet soon, he will not ask any further questions. If the house is an apartment building, use a remote doorbell (u can buy them cheaply off of amazon, like 20 bucks each) that sends messages to your phone when someone rings. You can then quickly head to the drop location and get the item.
For small items you need to have an an address that has a mailbox. Ideally you would be using an apartment building with lots of empty apartments. Find out which is empty and then use this mailbox as your drop address.
