John Lewis’ delivery companies have left a few items outside my front door without ringing the bell. Other times they rang the bell. It seems to depend on which company is delivering. Amazon also leaves items outside without ringing the bell or even sending me tracking. They used to be very good about this though.
The actual problem is thieves trespassing on your property and stealing your property.
But yes, let’s list the companies we buy from who deliver carelessly and then we can collectively avoid them.
I’ll start.
John Lewis - has to be signed for
Forthglade - has to be signed for
Amazon - will leave on doorstep but detailed tracking is available so there is time to ask a neighbour to pick it up, or to be home yourself
Ebay - seller specific. You can ask (before you buy/pay) for the item to be posted recorded delivery or with tracking. The things I bought all needed to be signed for.
