How late is too late to recieve a package?

[Sparx]

UPS just knocked on my door at 7:05 PM, they tried to deliver once already, at 4:10 yesterday, but i wasn't at home.

so how late is too late in your opinion? how early is too early?

I think as the holidays get closer UPS starts delivering packages earlier and continues their deliveries late into the evening.

I do not care how early or how late.

I would think after 9 would be too late. Only because it would freak me out to have someone knocking on the door that late.

Before 7:30 or 8 would be too early for me, for the same reason above.

Our UPS guy doesn't even ring the bell. He just leaves packages on the front step. Honestly though, I don't consider 7 to be late at all.

9 pm.

Our UPS starts getting this late closer to the holidays.

Are you bothered by getting this package? Or happy they came back? Just wondering

I'm not bothered, i'm happy they came back at all! but i was just thinking that i'm sure this is late for some people.

I seem to recall that some of those drivers can't end their work day until they finish delivering ALL the packages.

7:05pm is late? I get up at 5am and I'll accept a package until at LEAST 9pm (I love me some packages)

As long as I get what I want, I don't care what time it comes!!

The UPS guy that has the route up here at the lake often doesn't get here till sometime between 6:30 pm and 7 pm.. No problem..

 

[bicker]

Anytime between 8AM and 9PM is fine.

Well, now, that there is a tag!! lol

I love my UPS driver. He's so accomodating and considerate. I cant' imagine anyone expecting a package being annoyed that a driver working through the dinner hour into the evening got the job done.

I think if the lights are on it's fine. If the lights are off in the house, then after 9 is too late, IMO.

If it was the hunky Fed Ex guy he could ring my bell anytime! The UPS guy probably around 9 if my lights are on.

Well, I can see with robbers dressing up as phony UPS men trying to gain access into a house, it would be good to know what time they actually stop delivering.

But, I would think after 9 pm would be too late.

Last year the lastest delivery that we got from ups was 9:45....they always run late around Christmas. Most of the time they just toss it on your step anyway but my dog will hear and start barking so I know they are there.

 

[Kimberle]

7 is not to late. Boy, I feel bad for these guys/girls working so late. I'm sure they just want to get home to their families.

 

[phorsenuf]

Completely off topic, but how old are you now? And you're living on your own? I feel sooooo old!

If I still have lights on in the house, then I wouldn't mind a delivery person knocking on my door. But if it's late and the house is dark, that would be too late to try to deliver a package, unless the delivery person is familiar with the house (we used to have a "regular" UPS man for years) and puts the package inside the garage, thus not disturbing us.

How early in the morning? Again - lights on in the house, okay. House dark, not okay. If I had to pick a time, I'd say not to start until 8:00.

This is correct, says the wife of a UPSer.

Well, this time of year, I'd say after 10PM would be too late. The delivery services are probably crazed trying to get everything dellivered.
