The post office marked my address as not deliverable for a package as they could be get access to my porch. I've added photos showing the porch is wide open. Do better USPS.

Whoever from usps in dalton just delivered to Brady drive, you put 3 different apartment’s orders at one apartment instead of doing YOUR JOB and placing them infront of each of our doors! pure trash! You don’t care and that’s how peoples stuff get lost! Next time I will be waiting and if I see that I’m catching a name and really reporting it! Do better!
