From my couch-bound perspective, it seems like a straightforward idea, but I’m sure there are more complex factors I’m not addressing..

with the amount of things people order online they would not have enough time or space on their trucks to deliver everything. Think of this. Our mail stations have only so many mail boxes for packages. If you change delivery of packages to 2 days a week vs 6 days a week the amount of packages will far exceed the mail boxes to put them in. What do you do with all of the packages people are to get when you cannot deliver them?
