How to postpone M5 Mac Studio delivery and manage trade-in?

i order an M5 Mac Studio and Apple says it will be delivered in mid-October. Will be traveling shortly after it arrives so I will not have to time set it up, transfer files from my existing Studio (verify aps work with Golden Gate, ...). I would llke to postpone delivery? Is that possible (othan canceling the order and submitting it at a later date). How long with Apple hold my order at a store and how long do I have to send my trade in back?


Sorry for the string of questions, but looking at all options

He means that you contact the online store by telephone, provide them the order number and then tell them you want the delivery done to your local Apple Store instead of your home.


You can find the online store's phone number on their main page. If you happen to be in the USA, you can click Contact - How to Contact Us - Apple

to find the phone number. If you are outside the USA then use Google to find the on-line store's phone number for your country.
