How is it even a policy to leave unsigned packages at residential homes? If I'm not home, take it back to your depot and I'll pick it up when I have time |

it comes down to the merchant whether they pick do not safe drop or not...so it's on amazon really
i love the purolator guy that works on my block, just to be safe he went to my old address first thinking my new address was a typo (very similar to my old address) and asked for clarification
canada post otoh constantly delivers to the wrong address few blocks away, and sometimes doesn't even bother getting the package outta the truck and only leaves the pick-up slip and you gotta wait until a day off because the neighbourhood shoppers has similar business hour as your work |

Maybe not a great idea. It'll be like my neighbour who put up a fake owl in the garden to keep the crows out. Two weeks later, the crows are perched on the fake owl and pecking away at its head.
Once the thieves realize your sign is bogus, they'll hit you hard and do a victory dance in front of your camera as they rape your packages. Soon their buddies will join in and camp out across the street......... just saiyan.
Having packages sent to a Flex Delivery address or have it sent to designated pickup locations is still the best alternative. Can't steal shit that isn't there. UPS has pick up locations. I was told by UPS that they don't send to post offices (Flex Delivery), but one of their designated pick up location IS the Kensington Square Shoppers Drug Mart Post Office, lol. I think Purolator has pickup locations, too. When I order stuff from places like Staples, I use in-store pick up. It's free and faster than having it shipped to your house.

^ i used to do distribution and really don't give a fuck all on what's being delivered. We just want to get our job done and over with.
Thing of the shit you want to steal
a) iphone? Samsung? heck.. everything has ESN / S/N ... it's very valuable to sell for parts, but ... am I going to go thru all the trouble... maybe?
b) big ass TVs.. well...it ain't going to happen for UPS driver..
c) computer parts... without knowing what's in the box (some customs declaration is shit)... it could be a mouse or a RAM.
Honestly, with a solid salary + benefit plan + video everywhere.. is it really worthy to risk for an unknown package?
