Delivery of Peridoneal Dialysis Supplies

[Girlfriday17]

Since the previous threads are a few years old, I am hoping somebody has some recent experience. I am trying to get my parents to come to WDW (as opposed to their usual DL trip), and my dad is on Peritoneal Dialysis. We are from Canada and he has Baxter deliver his supplies, which from previous threads other posters say is excellent in the USA as well. We are considering staying at Coronado Springs and since it's a convention centre resort, do they still charge fees for the delivery. I know from the stacked up boxes they have at their home $10 per box would be prohibitively expensive. Should we stay elsewhere? Is there another place we could have Baxter delivery to without a fee either another resort or outside WDW that we could go pick up at? Any input would be helpful. We are not anticipating this trip until September.

Yes you will still be charged a delivery fee. Your package is delivered to the business center which is not run by Disney and the other company is the one that charges the fee.

Is this at all the resorts?

I believe it is for the conference center, not most resorts. I have shipped a box to Caribbean beach in the past with no fee.

Enjoy your vacation!

Most WDW resorts do not charge fees. Because of the conference center, packages sent there are handled differently than they are at the other resorts. I can't remember if there is another resort with the same issue, but CSR is the only one I can remember people commenting on for sure. There's probably a way to call and ask, but if you want to know about a different specific resort, ask here and someone will know.

If you haven't checked out the FAQ sticky on the top of the disAbilities board, it's worth reading. It may answer more of your questions or questions you didn't even realize you had.
