Amazon doesn't even try with deliveries. I have an empty plant pot next to my front door, perfect for concealing delivered parcels. The Australia Post guy who does the deliveries in my hood gets it. Amazon just leaves the package on my front door mat for anyone to pinch. Hopefully it's still there when I get home tonight.
We have a mailbox at our doorstep literally made for parcels and most deliveries just get put behind it instead of inside
I set up a big concrete planter box with drainage plumbing and everything just for concealment purposes.
Deliveries end up behind it maybe half the time if Iโm lucky.
