We've had stuff dropped off for collection at the sub PO in the village
with a note through the door. Very convenient.

THey used to do that here, now they take it back to the sorting office,
they have at least extended their opening hours, so if you arrive home
to see the non-delivery card you have got time to go and collect it the
same evening, despite the card saying you're supposed to wait at least
24 hours before collection.
