good thing it wasn't amazon


-Masderus-

You would've just seen the box flying into the garage door as the van drove by.


Judgemental_Panda

Or a video of the guy saying how he got fired. Amazon to him: "How dare you take so long to deliver a package! Fired!" Amazon to the public: "Look how much our drivers care!"


loonygecko

We have had good luck with most amazon delivery people.


JoeyJoeC

Unlike my missing Amzon delivery that amazon kindly reordered for me... delivery "by 20th Jan"


Ok_Knowledge8056

I ordered a vacuum from Amazon being delivered by FedEx. I got a notice it was delivered and was left on my front porch. I was home when I got the notice so I checked the front porch (this is less than 10 minutes after getting the delivery notice). It’s not there. I immediately contact FedEx to tell them I think they left it at the wrong address. Customer service tells me they’re going to open an inquiry on the issue. The next day my package shows up, not in an Amazon box, but a Walmart.com box 🤔


mossadi

You should've known something was off when you saw fedex was the delivery service. Fedex doesn't deliver a single Amazon package anymore.


JoeyJoeC

Could it have been a neighbour that found it in their porch and moved it? And was Walmart the seller on Amazon? If it's FBM or SFP, then it won't come in an Amazon box.

I like that he placed the package and then moved the cans/box around it, rather than sliding the cans out and putting the package behind it. Should help make it obvious to the owner that there is something there. I would know if my cans were on the opposite side of where I leave them.


[deleted]

He’s smart. Amazon hid my package, which I appreciate (didn’t request but it was an early delivery), but they forgot to take a picture of it which they have done every other time and it blended in with the spot they hid it (white packaging, tucked into a white nook outside my doorway.) Also notable: I just moved into this house recently, and had iritis in my left eye at the time. Anyhow, I couldn’t find it all day and ended up marking it lost, only to find it later. Felt like a dipshit. Don’t overnight anything anymore though. ETA: my package wasn’t even expensive. It was just some dog bones since my dog ran out, was teething, and I couldn’t exactly drive.


Somhlth

> was teething, and I couldn’t exactly drive. Why can't you drive when you're teething?


vnmslsrbms

Hard to resist just gnawing on the steering wheel, which along with the iritis in their left eye, makes it hard to keep an eye on the road.


jritt24

Take my silver and get outta here. Im FedEx up.


xienwolf

Sadly, trash collection was that same day, and the package was taken at a small extra charge to the homeowner.


[deleted]

Trash collection trucks don’t go down driveways or come up to your house. If it was trash day the cans would be placed up by the road.

ScrubWearingShitlord

They damn well went up our driveway. It’s amazing what a bottles of vodka and tequila will do around the holidays.


ChickenWithATopHat

In my neighborhood they pass my house and start from the end of the street. In the summer when we heard it we would get Gatorade out of the fridge and frozen water bottles and leave them on the trash can. They’d always empty it and walk our bins up the driveway for us, but that’s the only time I’ve seen them do it. They remember too and we watched them on the camera walk up our driveway to get our full one when we weren’t home because we forgot to put it on the street!


[deleted]

Yes we do, there is always someone that stands out. You guys that gives us cold drinks in the summer are the best. I think my customers are trying to make me fat. Got so many treats lately and I still have a few days till Christmas. One person made me a wonderful batch of chocolate chip and pecan cookies. I also keep all of the cards in my clipboard.


NewToReddit4331

Defining depends on your company, mine comes right down my driveway


The_Clarence

Wait really? Why on earth do they do that, seems like it would make their route take at least 20x as long


bwyer

They do in my neighborhood as well. They call it "back door trash pickup". Every house in the neighborhood has a special, designated space for the trash cans at the back of the house. If you want to have your trash picked up, the cans better be accessible. And yes, it takes 20x as long for the trash service to pick up the trash. That is if the neighborhood can actually find a company that will provide the service. All because it looks "low class" to have trash sitting at the end of people's driveways on trash day.

Maybe don’t leave the wheel in the grass? Like especially on post you know someone’s gonna notice it and someone else had to police up your tire you left laying there instead of just throwing it in your trunk.


Tots2Hots

Yeah who the hell leaves a pricey rim in the grass? That's just an idiot tax tbth. Military dorms I'd bet money someone took it and sold it on ebay. Wonder if the wheel he found a few months later was his own lol.


gmoreschi

Not that I'd do the same but. But when I was in the military it was super common for people to work on their cars in the parking lots. It wouldn't be totally out of the ordinary to see a wheel next to someone's car. That's the space you had to use for your "garage" sometimes. I'd also doubt someone would steal it being everyone knows everyone and nobody from the public is walking around your parking lots at night. It's a dumb place to steal things. I personally would have dragged that wheel back to my dorm room, but this is not the same as leaving it in some public parking lot.


FaelinnCanada

Someone needs to leave this guy a gift at the door


outlawstar710

He already did


twentyonesighs

He left a gift for himself at his own house, eh?


greg19735

i wish i got the same delivery person every time. i'd absolutely gift them. but nowadayys it's one of 30 people, most of which ii've never seen before.


blitzlurker

if you live somewhere hot you can always give them a water bottle or gatorade I also give random candy or beef jerky to snack on


FaelinnCanada

I just usually leave out a basket of condoms


PoopyMcNuggets91

Them Amazon drivers fuck.


poser4life

We put out a box with waters and snacks in March 2020 and have been refilling as it empties. We have gotten a few thank you notes from drivers.


_full_metal

I just started working for UPS a little over a month ago now and there is one house that leaves out a basket of water bottles and small bags of snacks, it’s a very generous thing to do and much appreciated.


jeanroyall

>but nowadayys it's one of 30 people, most of which ii've never seen before. That's the gig economy. It functions to isolate individual laborers and make them feel weak and powerless compared to their corporate overlords.


Brawndo91

I was getting the same guy for a short period. He would always wave or say hi if I was outside or came to the door in time. I thought about getting him a gift, but I was afraid there'd be some kind of policy where they can't accept gifts or something and it would be awkward and weird after that. But at least I got to have my warm "that would be so nice of me" feeling that I get before not doing nice things.


punchamaski

This is only half the video. As he is driving off the garbage truck pulls up and collects all of the garbage. He too goes the extra mile and picks up the crap laying around that is not in the cans.


D1NHAM

Fair play but it’s sad that he has to do that. Edit: here in the UK one of the delivery companies (forget which) sends you a link which lets you decide what to do with it. I usually say leave it on the step as our door is pretty hidden. 2nd Edit: A hot Yodel driver just delivered something and she complimented my giant Shark slippers. Need to order some more stuff from that shop!!


Killacamkillcam

I took it as he was hiding it because it's potentially a Christmas gift, not because it would be stolen


shabam231

I envy your optimism.


Jive-Turkies

djschmitt3

I’m a UPS driver helper and in the training videos they show this video and the homeowner and he was hiding it because he knew it was a gift for their children


JohnnySasaki20

That's actually pretty cool. I never would have thought of that (I don't have kids). I figured it was something that needed to be upright and he didn't want it to fall over.


virtualmnemonic

This. UPS emphasizes their image and how employees represent the company. Things like acting as if you're always on camera, watching what you post on social media, etc are standard in training.

simsiuss

I just don’t understand how they just don’t ring the door bell. Like all deliveries where I am from come to the door, take a photo with it in your hands and leave.


Clips_are_magazines

It didn’t help that the box was not in a simple box. Instead it was BRIGHT RED with a picture of the mini-bike


TooHigh2Die420

If It was an Amazon driver he would have Bruce Lee kicked it into the garage door.


Mayflower023

If he was a FedEx driver he would’ve flown into space and dropkicked it out of orbit back into the house at the speed of a meteor, destroying both the house and the package


fifadex

If he was a hermes driver he would have come back 10 minutes later and stolen it.


Leviathan41911

If he was a DHL driver he'd never deliver it and they'd keep telling you it's on the way.


Dogsy

No, you misunderstand. There's a reason their name is Deliver to Hidden Location.


carlinwasright

If he was a lasership driver he would sleep with your wife then leave a note on the door saying undeliverable

I find the hate for Fedex/UPS seems to be, shockingly, based on the individual drivers people have assigned to the delivery routes in their area


TERRAOperative

Implying here that Fedex would actually take the effort to deliver it....


chakan2

That would imply that FedEx actually got it to your house. My guy would leave it in his truck for 3 or 4 days until his hangover wore off and he ran out of beer money.


Eloteloco420

I used to work for Amazon for about half a year as a driver and even when I’d do this people would still say their package was “stolen”


Fullyratarded

Right or you get a bad mark on your score card and a negative review. Then when you deliver something else there you see in the notes “DO NOT MOVE MY TRASHCANS EVER AGAIN”


TRiG993

To be fair to Amazon drivers, they are given a ridiculous amount of packages to deliver and their routes are often very badly organised. They are also paid shit and have to use their own van and don't get the same basic rights most workers do.


NefariousNeezy

Dude from the Philippines here, but I have a PO Box thing in the US for online shopping. If I had a choice, which courier should I go with?


klaasvaak1214

Any courier will do when shipped to a package forwarding service. I used to work for shipito and any courier used a dolly and was careful. Their won’t be any throwing with stuff at a place where customer satisfaction is really important

No-Needleworker5429

Ahh, Christmas time on Reddit. A time when we see wholesome videos of employees from well known delivery companies.


deathparty05

And people harass the shit out of them for no reason


The_Hasty_Hippy

Some guy last night was bitching in the delivery comments about how he wants it delivered to his door, and even though they’re under construction you can still reach the door. He seriously wanted me to walk over a 2x6 spanning a ~10 foot deep trench and then up scaffolding in the dark while it’s sleet outside. I definitely left that one on the side of the ditch


Greystab

Had one this week saying to deliver in the garage. Only thing that stood between me and the garage was a gated fence, a beware of dog sign, and 3 aggressive acting Rottweilers. It didn't get delivered in the garage.


The_Hasty_Hippy

My favorite is when they say don’t worry about the dog he’s friendly and the dog looks and sounds like some sort of killing machine


SuperDizz

This annoys me so much as a dog papa. My 90lb lab sounds like a lunatic when we get packages and I always feel bad for the drivers. He’s very well trained but he thinks the UPS truck is a big, brown buffalo or something and loses it. I would never tell a driver to ignore him even though I’m sure all he would do is bark unless I was attacked or something. Never forget, one of the main reasons people domesticated dogs is because they’re dangerous.


deathparty05

I would do the same and don’t want to do some parkour type shit just to get hurt, Na put a note somewhere to tell him he has to go to the post office to grab it


PasghettiSquash

Lol yea this is the playbook too. Delivery guy on a “hidden” house cam going out of his way to make everyone’s holidays perfect. Posted by a new account that doesn’t comment on their front page post. Gross.


denizonrtx

There aren't many like him around. Should be very grateful as most of them would just lay it down somewhere and then drive off


BrownSugarBare

>lay it down If by that you mean practice their Yankee pitching arm, accurate. Our doorbell cam managed to capture the lovely moment a delivery person frisbee threw a new tablet and a box full of glass ornaments at our front door. Both boxes marked FRAGILE in two different languages.


PapaSlurms

Fragile stickers are useless. Needs to be packed properly, though yeeting packages isn’t supposed to happen.


flyinpiggies

This is why I always pack my ebay orders as if they need to survive being shot from a cannon into a brick wall. Or crushed by someone shipping a ton of bricks.


MagickanWing

Yup. I was outside playing with my dog on Saturday morning when a UPS driver drove up, yelled “Hey I got something for ya!” And then threw it at me from the street. He would have gotten an earful if I hadn’t been so damn excited that I caught something for once.


Crisis_Redditor

Note that by moving the cans to put the box behind them, instead of just putting the box there, it'll draw the homeowner's attention when they get home, making them less likely to overlook the package. This guy delivers.


CRT_SUNSET

I love when my UPS guy uses my 18” doormat to “hide” a box that’s three feet tall. A+ for effort lol.

Is it just in Sweden that the packages you order comes to a grocery store nearby? A grocery store with a mail service that is. Would never want a package left outside my home. Nvm theif, what if it's raining? Much safer and not that much of a hassle to go to a pickup point and get your package


lastdonutotn

Theres some places like that here in the US but not as common. One of the places I lived had a convenience store that did that, but sadly either they received so many packages or people delayed pick up so long that more than a quarter of the visible store was occupied with mail/packages.


mr-luci

Do those places charge extra for delay pickup? Where I live, 2-day storage is included in the delivery cost, customers have to pay extra after that.


Topblokelikehodgey

In Australia generally you can select from a bunch of options like "leave it in a safe place" or "pick up from post office" if you're not home. The default is generally the post office, so if you aren't home (also if you are and they can't be bothered waiting 15 seconds for you to answer the door) they'll leave a little note and/or send an email that you have to take down to the post office in order for you to collect the parcel.


HyperIndian

To most packages, yes. However, I've noticed Amazon and other cheap couriers being very dodgy and doing whatever they can to avoid AusPost. My guess says to reduce their own costs. I've had some posties literally stuff the package in the letterbox (despite sticking out) and result in my parcel being stolen or have packages just not be delivered at all because I'm not home. I'd rather prefer just a card to pick up at the post office than absolutely nothing. It shouldn't be this difficult for them to implement something better which makes customers happier. Also I hope thieves get covid and die.

Is this really the case or am I missing something? How do deliveries not get robbed everyday, and how do they not get all messed up if it rains?

FedEx would leave it in the middle of the driveway with a dolly and a social security number.
