I have the address of my local FedEx and send it to the seller so everyone's on the same page.
I do the same....fwiw, barring delays, the packages are generally available for pickup when the facility opens for business in the morning (this statement is for FedEx staffed facilities - I cannot comment about other options....and it may not apply to locations that open very early). Mine opens at 0830, and I'm usually pulling in as the trucks are leaving to start their deliveries.
