If you are very unlucky (as I have been on several occasions) they put the key in the box of someone who is a snowbird (currently NOT in TV) or on vacation or something. I have had to write to the mail delivery person several times to ask him/her to look around for my package that was allegedly delivered by Amazon to "MY" mailbox but wasn't there.

I am still waiting for the postal service to locate a Priority package that was listed in my daily Informed Delivery email before Christmas. No idea what it was or who sent it. All I know is I track all my packages (I buy a lot of stuff online) and that one never did show up.

YMMV.
