Today I had something delivered in two Amazon boxes nested in each other.

Their logic is beyond our reasoning

Living in.a rural area where my mailbox is two tenths of a mile away in.a group of other mailboxes for the same housing development I would welcome such a package from.Amazon.

Since my mailbox is a quarter mile away I bought a mailbox that locks. Once the mail piece us put inside it can't be retrieved even is the person delivering the mail put it in.my box mistakenly which has happened. I then take the mailpiece and write on it delivered to wrong box and drop it in a blue mailbox so it has to go through the system again.or if I see the carrier I give it to them and tell them to put it in the r8ght box and sometimes they put out back in.my box again.

The first piece of mail I received was a post it n I te inside my box from the letter carrier that stated locking mailboxes are not allowed on rural routes. I said BS to that and found the rule that states locking mailboxes are not allowed on rural routes if their is no statement by the manufacturer that says approved by postmaster general on the box itself. There is one on.my box so it's legal.

The letter carrier is supposed to deliver the package to the home's address if the Package wont fit in the box. The local postmaster and I came to an agreement that the packages will be delivered to my home if they would not fit in a standard sized rural route mailbox and if they would fit a standard rural box but not mine I will have to pick up the pakage, that means me driving five miles one way to pick up the package when.my schedule permits.

I wish Amazon would send everything that I order in an over sized box that will not fit in a rural non locking box so that the carrier had no choice but to bring it to my house.

That sounds like a big fucking headache lol. Though I bet you get peace away from neighbours, I'd take that tbh

Actually the neighbor is about 40 foot away.if he sees that a package is being delivered and me not home he takes it in his house and sends me a text that it's waiting for me. I just wish they would deliver all packages that don't fit in my box but will In a standard box. I think.some of these rural route guys are too uptight.

That's pretty cool, I had imagined some outback rural area but then I'm on the suburbs of Belfast northern Ireland so everyone lives so close we might aswell be sitting in each other's houses, theres even our rural areas of wouldn't be rural to the point we have to travel that far for our packages

In the US where I live some houses are so close together you could be out of toilet paper and be in the bathroom while your neighbor could hand you a roll through their bathroom window to your bathroom window.

I don't even want to say what a person can hear in an apartment that's divided from what was once a large home if the bedrooms are opposite each other separated by one insulated wall. Use your imagination.
