The FedEx locations page on ParcelPath gives you the carrier’s official locator link, the location-type breakdown (full-service, retail partner, locker, drop box), the search methods that work for the network, and the hours pattern so you can plan a drop-off without driving to a closed point. ParcelPath does not republish the FedEx locator data here on the carrier hub because FedEx’s own locator is the authoritative source and updates as points open, close, or change hours.
Where to search for a FedEx location
Use FedEx’s own locator at https://www.fedex.com/locate/ for the live, address-level search. Enter a ZIP code, postcode, or street address and the locator returns the closest points sorted by proximity with hours and accepted services. The FedEx locator is the only authoritative source for whether a specific point accepts a specific service tier on a specific day — point-level details change frequently and ParcelPath does not mirror that data here.
FedEx location types
FedEx supports several distinct location types, and the right one for a given parcel depends on whether you need full-service counter help, a quick drop-off, or a 24/7 access point:
- FedEx Office
- FedEx OnSite (in Walgreens, Dollar General, Albertsons)
- FedEx Authorized ShipCenter
- FedEx Drop Box
- FedEx Express Drop-off (some grocery retailers)
FedEx network coverage
over 60,000 drop-off points across the United States — including the FedEx Office retail chain (~2,000 locations) plus tens of thousands of FedEx OnSite counters embedded in Walgreens and Dollar General stores. The locator’s address-level search is the only reliable way to confirm what’s near a specific origin or destination — the coverage above is the network-level shape, not a guarantee that any given ZIP has every location type within walking distance.
How to search effectively
The locator accepts ZIP, city, or address — the locator filters by service tier (Express drop-off, Ground drop-off, FedEx International drop-off, hold for pickup, printing services, packaging supplies) and shows the latest pickup time so you can confirm the parcel makes that day’s truck. For an outbound parcel, search by your origin ZIP or address; for an inbound parcel that you want to redirect to a pickup point, search by the destination ZIP. If the closest point doesn’t accept the service tier you booked through ParcelPath (Express drop-off vs Ground drop-off, for example), the locator’s service-type filter will surface the next-closest qualifying point.
FedEx hours pattern
Hours FedEx Office locations typically run 7am to 9pm Monday through Friday, 9am to 5pm Saturday, 12pm to 6pm Sunday; FedEx OnSite hours follow the host retailer (Walgreens is generally 8am to 10pm seven days; Dollar General varies); FedEx Drop Boxes are outside-access 24/7 with last pickup printed on the box; FedEx Authorized ShipCenters run on independent retailer hours. Always check the locator for the exact hours of the specific point you plan to visit — partner-retailer hours change with the retailer’s own schedule and the locator data reflects those changes more reliably than carrier-published averages.
FedEx-specific lingo to know
**Latest pickup** time on a Drop Box is the cutoff for outbound that day. **FedEx Express** drop-offs require the receiving point to support the Express service tier — many FedEx Ground drop-offs don’t accept Express parcels. **Hold at Location** redirects inbound parcels for pickup instead of residential delivery. **FedEx OnSite** counters can accept and label small parcels but are not full-service printing or packaging — for those, find a FedEx Office.
