That can not be done. USPS will not accept delivery of a patrons mail. The only hope you would have is to apply for General Delivery Service. However, because you do have a permanent delivery address, it is extremel unlikely tha tthe postmaster would approve that for you. Plus, you need to be over 18, with a photo ID, and you would have to make the request in writing. It is completely at the Posmasters discretion as to whether or not to approve it.
