Sending Package to St Jean Prior to Walking

I was wondering if anyone had used a 'mail service' of any kind to pre-position an item(s) in advance of their walk out of St Jean. Unfortunately, my accommodation venue won't support this request, and I suspect 'Poste Restante' would be tricky in coordinating timings. In my case the item is quite small (iPhone size box) - which shouldn't be too inconvenient for someone's temporary care.

Has anyone had any success in this area?

Cheers,

Kev

Do you want to mail it from the US? I would be quite concerned about it getting stuck in Customs.

I agree with Trecile about this and why do you need to ship something that small instead of taking it with you?
