[QUOTE="browniehound, post: 680657, member: 4653"] I have to agree with UPstate here. You followed UPS guidlines by asking for a signature at a commercial stop and then at any address corrected packages. However, somebody paid for Saturday delivery so the parcel must have been very important. In the case that I exhuasted every option to contact the consignee and I knew the consignee on a first name basis, I may have DR'd the parcel. It was a piece to a printing press. I think you would have been safe, unless you know of a black market for stolen printing press pieces, lol? Obviously, this is just my opinion an you should do what your gut tells you. There are two ends of the spectrum, the guy who just wings everything and the guy who won't DR anything. I think they are both wrong and there is a happy medium. The guy who wings it is DR'ing 47 inch plasma TVs on the back deck because the barcode is not sig. required. Then we have this driver that won't DR "Drugstore.com" packages when they are just filled with aftershave, shaving cream, deodorant, etc. The bottom line is to use your discretion. If I have a NDA envelope for a commercial stop and the office is closed, I usually just slide it under the door and sheet it as "DR FRONT DOOR". I've been doing this for 11 years and nobody has ever mentioned a word about it to me. [/QUOTE]
