# Pickups API overview

Scheduling a pickup allows you to have your parcels collected by a driver from a location of your choice. When scheduling a pickup via the **Pickups API**, the sender address is dynamic, which means you don't have to have a sender address saved in your Sendcloud account settings.

When you schedule a pickup via the API, you can only schedule a **one-time collection**. Depending on your shipping volume, it's possible to schedule a recurring pick-up from your preferred location weekly or more often.

<Note>**Tip:** Schedule your collection **at least 2 working days in advance** to keep some time for processing.</Note>
