While a broad generalization, there is a lot of truth to this. However, the delivery companies are probably aware of this problem, as they all have a method of telling the adressee that they have a parcel, without actually completing the delivery. If they are going to take on the responsibility of residential deliveries, then they should also have protocols in place to ensure that they can complete their contracted responsibilities without putting customers goods at risk of theft or damage. Abandoning a box on someones front step in plain view is not, in my opinion, a responsible delivery method. William Robb - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
