[letterfoxed]

What are the worst things people do to make delivery impossible?

[pinstripe]

People who live in multi occupancy flats that don’t have a door bell/door bell that doesn’t work/ bell that doesn’t have a flat number, oh and no flat number on the item you’re trying to deliver

Managers giving us way too much work to do in our time, making delivery impossible.

Return to sender. Easy

Front door open but front gate shut. Too risky to enter incase there’s a loose dog.

Businesses that don’t open til 5pm like curry houses and kebab shops with no letter slot in the shutters.

You still have to attempt delivery first

Not exactly inaccessible but what about the one when there's something like an ironing board propped up right behind the door so you sometimes knock it over accidentally or otherwise

Technically not inaccessible, don't know how common it is. Once we had pass through our locker an item that by address was proper to one office but they had an agreement with office B that office B delivers items to that address. We kept sending it to the DO that the address was proper to. Think we killed it off in the end as no such address

If there's no number of it I don't take it out of office just sticker it and return it.

As an aside, I recently had a returned parcel, no name, just Flat 3 and the postcode. The postcode covered approximately 50 properties, all of which were flats. Manager couldn’t understand why I couldn’t deliver it and no one knew what to do with it.

I had that years ago with a set of ladders. They were up against the vertical letterbox and it moved them with enough force I thought they were about to go through the internal glass door. I watched through the flap as they stood upright teetering on the edge before settling back down. So long as I was on that duty they never moved those bloody ladders - never knowing how close they were to disaster every day.

Years ago I remember someone killing off mail because it had no house number (addressed to a street with 1 house only)

Still can't work out if he's thick or lazy.

Not exactly inaccessible but i once had a letter for a radio mast.
The track was up a hill past a farm building which we did actually deliver to.
If i recall the ground was dry so no chance of getting stuck and must have been quiet as i went up to the top of the moor.
Track was not actually that bad, and though there was no DP as such there was a door i could open which revealed a panel inside a box so i left it in there.
Sometimes pass the place on my travels and wonder if its still there.

Every now and then a utility bill comes through for one of those green phone cabinets
