[QUOTE="beentheredonethat, post: 204147, member: 4886"] UPS will make a second or if necessary a third delivery attempt to deliver a package. However, if we can deliver it on the first attempting by Driver releasing it to a safe area that is "Out of sight, Out of weather" then we will. You indicated you have a long driveway, under normal circumstance the driver would drive down the driveway and deliver it if the driveway is passable, as another poster said, can a UPS vehicle make it down your road, (Will it hit tree limbs, electrical wire etc, if it's winter time is it passable?) Is there a place to turn around, or will the driver have to back out the driveway? I've seen many times, the driver has called the customer from the number on box when this has occurred and told customer where the pkg is. If the driveway we are talking about is only 300 yards or so, then the driver should walk it. If we are talking about a 1 mile driveway, then that's a different story. Our goal is to get you the package as soon as possible. With the least risk of the package getting stolen or damaged. Without knowing more, I can't tell, if there was a better reason the driver did this or not. If based on this input, you think the driver did the right thing, great. If you think there was no reason he didn't bring it to your door, then call in a complaint by calling 1800 Pickups. [/QUOTE]
