    You can't, unless they apply to be one.

    Yes as above, you can only add it if it's listed. You can't apply for them to be listed. You could call in next time you're passing and ask them if they'd considered it.

    I am trying to help them by finding out how they can do it.
    As yet nobody can point me to how they can become a pickup point

    Have you tried Amazon Customer Services? Should be possible- there are plenty of post offices which are already pick up points.

    These are drop points for amazon, as well as collect+ locations. Amazon realistically want their own stand alone units (With names like gravity, ice etc) to be their sole pickup locations

    If that's the case, why are there so many post offices listed by Amazon as pick up points?

    Quite right, our local standalone collection site 'Doddle' closed after less than a year.
