Mail carrier stated a package was undeliverable due to not being able to get in the driveway or to the front door. First off the driveway is not blocked it is long enough for the mail jeep to pull into. Also the front door was not blocked. The problem is that the person delivering the mail couldn’t fit the tube into the mail box and was too lazy to pull into the driveway and walk 30 feet or so past a vehicle to leave it at a door so they just simply said it was undeliverable. . The other package we received shows it was left at or near the front door or porch , but it was actually left in the mail box. So if the carrier says it was left at the front door or porch how did they get it there and not the other package? LAZY people. No wonder the postal service is losing billions each year. Nobody wants to use them.

They refuse to drive up my driveway to give me my packages and just leave a note in the mailbox saying I have to go get the package from the postal service building. All this does is make me have to drive 25 minutes into town to go get my package that was already in my neighborhood. It’s ridiculous how lazy people can be.
