HoldAtLocation Property
Identifies the FedEx location where you want to have your shipment held for pickup.
Syntax
public AddressDetail getHoldAtLocation(); public void setHoldAtLocation(AddressDetail holdAtLocation);
Remarks
This is the address required for a FedEx shipment that is to be held at the destination FedEx location for pickup by the recipient. The HoldAtLocation and HoldAtLocationPhone properties are required to be provided in a ship request only when the HoldAtLocation is present in the ShipmentSpecialServices.
This must be set to an instance of the AddressDetail type, which will contain HoldAtLocation details.
Hold at FedEx Location (HAL) is available to customers who want to pick up a package rather than have it delivered. The sender must select the FedEx pick-up location from designated FedEx Kinko's Office and Print Centers, FedEx Kinko's ShipCenters, or FedEx World Service Centers. For a list of available FedEx locations, use the FindLocations method of the FedExAddress bean to search for FedEx stations where Hold at Location service is available.
The following FedEx services allow the HAL option:
- FedEx Priority Overnight (Saturday Service available)
- FedEx Standard Overnight
- FedEx 2Day (Saturday Service available)
- FedEx Express Saver
- FedEx Express Freight (U.S. only; Saturday Service is not available)
- FedEx International Priority
To determine if Hold at FedEx Location is available for your origin/destination pair, you can use the FedExRates bean. For US, to find the possible FedEx locations close to the recipient address, you can use the FindLocations method of the FedExAddress bean.
This is applicable for FedEx Express services only.
