I've read that recently the contractors have a new contract and they don't deliver to homes that aren't within a very short distance of the station - I do not know if this is accurate, seems to be based on comments. I tell anyone sending me a package to not use USPS, and if online ordering will rarely order if the shipper is USPS. A big issue is when the last part of the delivery is through USPS, was UPS or FedEx as the first part of the delivery then is handed off to USPS - the tracking shows "delivered" when it is scanned at the PO - NOT when in your box at the postal station, making it hard to track/verify packages.

Yes ! Seems to always show "delivered" when the package has NOT been delivered to our mail box or to our home. Maddening !
