place i can send packages to be picked up at ?
fwiw the poste restante service works fine but you can also try using a friend's address or a coworking space if you're here already. the bangkok post office on charoen krung is a bit of a hassle to get to if you're not near saphan taksin. some of the smaller post offices also do it but they might look at you weird if you ask in english. just write "poste restante" clearly on the package and your phone number too, they'll call you when it arrives
yeah thai post does hold packages at their main sorting office on charoen krung road, near saphan taksin bts. you can have it addressed to "poste restante" with your name and "bangkok post office" and they'll hold it for about 30 days. just bring your passport when you pick it up. i'd call the specific branch first to confirm they still do it, since policies vary sometimes
if you're near ekkamai, the thai post there on sukhumvit 63 is pretty chill about holding stuff. just address it to yourself care of that post office with the zip 10110, and write "ฝากไว้ก่อน" (leave it here) on the box in thai. they held a mattress topper for me for like 10 days no issue, just needed my passport
for a non-thai post option, there's a shop called "ship n mail" on ratchada near huai khwang. they do package holds for 50 baht a day and u can use their address as the shipping address directly. the guy who runs it speaks english well and they're open til 8pm most days, which is handy if ur moving in late
best som tam in Bangkok? Krua Dok Mai Kao 2026
yeah Krua Dok Mai Kao is solid but if you're up for a detour, try Som Tum Nua near Siam Square. their som tam pu pla ra is insane if you like the fermented fish sauce kick. way more pungent than the On Nut spot, just less grilled chicken options
