JD.com’s door-to-door pick-up means that JD.com will deliver the goods to the courier point closest to the buyer’s delivery address, and the buyer needs to go to the courier point to pick up the items.
When the goods arrive at the delivery station, the courier does not deliver the goods to the door. Instead, he sends a text message to the recipient’s mobile phone, prompting him to go to the delivery station or pick up the goods himself.
