If you’re in a pinch, TaskRabbit or even Craigslist *might* work for a proxy service to pick up goods.
But it’s risky unless you vet the person well.
I’ve had luck with TaskRabbit for local stuff—just make sure they send proof before paying.
Not ideal for international tho.

Oh wow, thanks for all the recs!
I’m leaning toward Grabr or Parcl based on what y’all said.
Quick Q—anyone know if these proxy services to pick up goods handle fragile items well?
Like, do they pack stuff carefully or just toss it in a box?
Also, shoutout to the warning about Instagram scams—almost fell for one last week. Appreciate the heads-up!
