[QUOTE="worldwide, post: 1066038, member: 2193"] You may think you are doing the receiver a favor, but by DR'ing a commercial stop, you just caused a billing adjustment to the shipper of $2.55 for a residential surcharge and depending on the zip code, an additional $2.75 delivery area surcharge. This causes up to a $5.30 billing adjustment on the shippers bill, and then they call in asking what happned and looking for a billing adjustment. They could also possibly call their account rep looking for an explanation on why a package that required a signature was left by the driver against UPS policy. This causes additional work for someone to research why this happened and explain to the customer what happened. If the receiver wanted the package left without a signature at a commercial stop, they can ask the shipper to process it with "shipper release" as an option. [url=http://www.ups.com/content/us/en/shipping/time/service/value_added/release.html]UPS: Shipper Release[/url] Just becuase no one has never mentioned it to you, does not mean it is the right thing to do nor that it does not have a negative effect on things.
