Not everything fits in an Amazon locker. Got it?

Here's an idea: Go to the store.

If you live in an area with package theft AND you have jobs that do not allow you to telework/stay home periodically to pick up a package AND you don't know anyone that can pick up the box for your AND you don't know someone who lives in a safer area who would allow you to have the package sent ot them AND you have a job where the employer doesn't allow you to receive packages, then rent a postal box at the Post Office or local UPS store.

You made the choice to live where you live. You weighed the pros and cons of living there vs living elsewhere, so instead of whining about one of the cons that you accepted to live there, do something to compensate. And stop whining about a con that you accepted to live where you chose to live.

All the postal boxes at my local Post Office and UPS store are sold out.

Now what?

Have UPS hold your item and pick it up directly from them.

Problem solving is hard.

I have children to support.
I work late hours.
They close early.

Now what?

Do you live in a forest? No neighbors or friends that can swing over and grab the package for you? That's really sad, I'm sorry.

UPS can't hold it for you? If you're working late tonight, they'll hold it for more than one day! Pick it up tomorrow!

They close early? Great! Pick it up Saturday morning!

If all else fails hire a concierge to grab it from your porch and hold it for you until you are home

UPS is closed on Saturdays.

Interesting. So this wasn't filmed by a security camera - looks like someone's cell phone. So someone stood there and filmed while the guy stole the package? Weird. Must be the neighbor Malcolm.

DC resident here; it is a common activity in my urban area and I have no choice but to accept that this occurs.

Just like you have to accept that there are more frequent, serious motor vehicle accidents in your suburb than there are in my 20 mph neighborhood.

Enjoy Bonefish Grill!

We all do not live in gated communities.
No unattended package lying on a doorstep is safe but packages with AMAZON/ZAPPOS written all over them attract attention and are more vulnerable to thieves.

Why cant Amazon/Zappos etc... use less obvious & more discrete packaging for their shipments?
