Parcel collection at DFW
Flying through the US with a 7 hour layover at DFW on Sunday.
I'd like to order some things off eBay, but where at the airport can I have them sent so I can collect them on a Sunday?
FedEx office in the Hyatt is closed.
Is it ok to use a hotel without a booking. Happy to pay a collection fee.
No where so far I have to get a ride out of the airport. I'm to anxious for that and the stuff I'm ordering isn't worth it.
Thanks

Good question. My first answer would have been to have the shipper specify that your parcels should held at a FedEx location for pickup. The nearest one open on a Sunday is ten minutes' drive from DFW:
FedEx Office Print & Ship Center
However, that would require leaving the airport briefly.
Good question about having something sent to the Grand Hyatt. You might be able to get away with that. I sometimes enter "GUEST ARRIVING [DATE]" as my surname. Then maybe give the front desk person a tip when you collect the package, so they don't ask why you aren't a hotel guest
