They couldnt give a crap about who signs for it, just as long as it was delivered. Also, if it was delivered within 100ft of your residence, FedEx considers it an 'On Target' delivery (Ive been down this road with them on this very issue).

Also, I only use USPS for 90% of my shipping (brother is a letter carrier) and UPS for the rest and expidited shipping. Only one issue in the last 12 years with either service.

Fordman's right. I just recently had a speaker bar I won on eBay misdelivered and signed for. The seller ended up giving me a refund and had to file a claim with FedEx.

UPS - By my side door, they try to tuck the package in as far as possible so it isn't noticed.
FexEx - Right in the middle of my front doorstep, which easily visible on a busy road.

Interesting. In Canada the postal service will not leave a package unless you are home or it fits in your mailbox. They leave a notice and you then go to your local post office and pick up the package after 5pm the day of delivery.

Just have the packages delivered to an elderly friend or relative.

Usually they are home all the time, and they would love to have someone come over and visit.

Or just make friends with your neighbors.  Mine signs for all my packages and the shop across the street takes them in too.

I love where I live.  Everyone is so friendly.  :angel:

Anyone watch the video?  Catch the female anchor's name?  I thought that was just a silly name used in comedy sketches.  CLASSIC!
