I try to avoid buying from Amazon but unfortunately in this day and age you can’t avoid it sometimes. Generally deliveries are placed inside our screened entryway.

Normally, they do this during the holiday season due to the vast numbers of packages.

They do take a picture from your front door and sometimes post a notice of a delivery on line.

If you are going to be away for awhile, just make sure you don't order anything.

We normally have delivery within a day or two, so know when to expect something at time of order.

If a high dollar item is ordered, I also have a PMB at the UPS Store, so will use that as the "ship to" address.

Your Amazon delivery may be made by an Amazon truck or USPS. Usually it depends on the size of your package as well as the value of what is inside. If it’s small enough it will likely be in your mailbox.

I order a lot from Amazon and I get a lot of them delivered right to my front door and sometimes a small package may go to my PO box.

They only use the trailers around Christmas time...

Most of Amazon deliveries depend on where the item(s) are shipped from...

It seems to vary, I occasionally see a UPS golf cart in our neighborhood and sometimes see a UPS truck.

I expect they will soon be trying out delivery drones, that would seem to make a lot of sense. A large "mother" truck carrying a bunch of small drones. Stop, let the drones out to deliver, the drones return, plug in, get loaded with another package by the automated mother truck, and then it moves to the next area. Of course they have to work out security (people stealing drones) but it will come. Soon I hope.

I get a lot of Amazon orders and like the others said it depends. The bigger heavy boxes are placed at my front door. Light packages can be either front door or mailbox. I had small very light boxes dropped off at home a couple times so not all small stuff goes to the mailbox.

A few times I even had the same guy in an unmarked white SUV hatchback drop off my Amazon stuff. At first I thought was it sent to the wrong address? He leaves quickly before I can ask. If I get a package/letter meant for a neighbor in my mailbox I just drop it off inside their front screen door. Happened once.

Yes sir, I am...

I know there's a lot of people sell books for $3.99 plus tax, I think it's more to get good ratings and to make any money because even with your labor being nothing you can't really make anything even if you got the book for free

They deliver to our house if it come by ups. In December ups used a golf cart pulling a trailer it was brown and had ups on it kind of funny to see

I assume this was posted to the wrong thread? I have no idea what it is about?

[Tom&JenC]

Thanks for the replies everyone. I got it

I'm wondering if you're the Tom from Jersey I've been chatting with?

Indeed sir, it is.
