My military training tells me this should be a check-list item. Am I over simplifying this? All of these gyrations and work-rounds would then be unnecessary. Perhaps there are many different size boxes, but I'd doubt that. They generally leave me a key and use the larger boxes when this could happen.

The problem is with the larger boxes that need the key left by the postal employee. The packages are large and stuffed into the larger parcel box, actually they're jammed in and removing them is sometimes impossible ....you can't take them out and they can't be pushed back in.
A funny aside....one day I opened our mail box and there was a triangular box inside. Couldn't figure out what it was so I started to pull it out. I pulled and pulled and pulled. The package kept on coming....turns out it was a golf club. Reminded me of those clown cars in the circus...clowns start coming out and just keep on coming and coming.
