Your Address

Your receiving address

Before anything is sent, get in touch and we’ll send you your receiving address and your personal reference. Give them to stores at checkout, or to family and friends who are sending something to you.

We give you your personal reference when you get in touch. Every package needs it so we know it’s yours.

Here is a simple example. Something is ordered online and sent to your receiving address. Your full name and reference go on the label. When the package reaches us, we match it to you and let you know it’s waiting.

How do I get my address?

Contact us and tell us what you plan to order. We reply with your receiving address and your personal reference.
