Since 2007 your paper by the second delivery is picked up by CW taken to front door which in 99% of home is out of sight from road. The second consecutive day a phone call is placed that the paper has been delivered and not retrieved.

It’s just as much a helpful notification for short vacation than snowbirds.

However the best reason for the CW phone call is…….

Non Responsive Resident or a Death of the resident who isn’t picking up DS….

That alone one should be happy that phone call is made, because eventually the smell becomes overwhelming.

Yes….more than a few times the phone call has resulted in well check, with not so positive outcome.

After all it’s a retirement community with some elderly who live alone. Non DS pickup due to Death has happened in 7 times in three of our neighborhoods. Not all residents who live alone take advantage of the daily well check phone calls available in TV
