It sounds simple to me.The guy wouldn't sign because the pkg was not for him,and did not want to be responsible for it.
Rts'ing it is unfair to the customer that ordered it.Calling it refused is a lie because the consignee was not there to refuse it.
Futuring it is also wrong because what if the customer is not there again tomorrow?
It's a ni1 .Leave an info notice where the consignee will see it and try again tomorrow.
If the package required a DIRECT signature from the consignee, I'd agree with you on the NI1. We don't require direct signatures.
Its a NR1. Someone was home, but they weren't willing to accept the package and it wasn't a refused situation. Bring it back another day but if it happened again on day 2, it's going back. I'm not playing games with roommates,live ins, squaters, whatever. They can come to the building and pick the package up and call up a complaint.
