Packages Being forced through my mail box?

Post by samuchan »

Hi, I moved to a new address recently I recieved my first package ever at this address a week ago and it was forced through my mail box?! And then again a few days ago. In my previous adresses they would always knock on the door so I'm guessing my mail man shouldn't be doing this. I am waiting for some other packages to arrive and was wonfering if there is anything I can do about this, as not everything will survive this treatment. Any advice? Thanks.

If it fits then it'll be pushed through, we don't have the time to knock on eveyones door with a slightly large packet especially if it could go through the door.

If they go through fairly easily then we are instructed to do exactly that.

However, if any are damaged make sure you claim, obviously if there are are series of complaints and claims from the same address then any decent manager or management system :nervous should address the situation fairly quickly.

Get a bigger letter box.

it went through then. if it can go though you'd complain about the postman not putting it through.
I think the recommendations of a note or a bigger box are good ones anyway :)

Ah thanks everyone, I guess I'll just have to hope my postman uses his nogin and does not force things through that could break.
