(Hide, Drop 'N Lose, Dave's Parcel Delivery, ShittyLink et.al)On the plus side, it appears that the UPS website will allow you to reschedule delivery to a different address if an initial attempt at delivery is unsuccessful. This could prove to be handy unless the driver displays some kind of initiative and leaves the package with one of the neighbours.
I don't think we've ever had a problem with UPS. Porcel Farce, DPD, Shitty Link and others have been variably poor.Last Hermes delivery was OK.
