DNM deliveries. PO box question

Someone I know is ordering a one-time, small shipment of 'contraband' through a DNM. They originally planned on ordering to their house, but are now deciding on the alternative. They are curious if it is safe to open a small PO box down the street for one delivery, then close the PO box. What are some experiences between the two?

Edit: They said there are sketched out going to a public place to pick up their package rather than not having to sign for it at the 'safety' of their home. Thinking too much into this or valid concern?

What is this?

My associate has been on DNMs for quite some time and advises uses a PO Box from a mom n pop or UPS store. This is because he has had to burn addresses multiple times and b/c in theory it makes a CD harder. It is one more layer between YOU and THE MAN. Think of it as a proxy. Of course if they want you you are fucked anyway but a POB is the way to go (also just my opinion avoid USPS boxes).

Opening a PO box, receiving one package, and then closing it right away is a huge red flag.

If he wants to do that tell him to open one, get his package, and then just let the rental period run out.
