You need to use the outputDirectory property to define the required location where you would like the jars to be copied to.

Here is an example of the configuration you would add in your POM:

...
    
        org.apache.maven.plugins
        maven-dependency-plugin
        
            
                copy-dependencies
                package
                
                    copy-dependencies
                
                
                    ${project.build.directory}/alternateLocation
                
            
        
    
    ...

Alternatively you can pass this configuration directly via the command line:

mvn -DoutputDirectory=alternativeLocation dependency:copy-dependencies
