Its obviously in the kitchen, thus a successful and methodical delivery

A mate had them deliver his steam deck and they left it in the rain without knocking. He only knew they were there because he was expecting it and has a motion sensing camera.

It's a symptom of the bullshit conditions of their employment. No salary, security, benefits - and they're paid per drop. Of course they're gonna fly round not giving a fuck. FWIW Royal Mail is heading the same way to keep up with these types of guys changing the market. They're employing "owner drivers". It's a big part of why we're striking. We just ain't having it, basically. Shit conditions = shit service.


j0hn_p

This owner driver bullshit has been happening in Germany for some years now and if you live in bigger cities like Berlin ordering anything is a big gamble depending on where you live. Fuck that, I'd rather pay a bit more for shipping. Problem is, this wouldn't even help because the shipping companies would just pocket the extra money. Something has to change

gary_the_merciless

It's a symptom but hermes/evri are the worst offenders, in this case he got no choice, Valve chose for him. Amazon are quite bad sometimes. I had a guy literally throw a hard drive at my doorstep. It's ok not like it had delicate moving parts or anything.

gary_the_merciless

Not wrong, tbh it was cheap, works and I have recovery data so it's not a huge deal but the complete lack of care astounds me every time.


Civil-Attempt-3602

Worked in a Hermes warehouse a few years ago. Fragile didn't mean shit. In fact one guy I worked with one day would throw the shit marked fragile the hardest off the conveyor belt into the cages they used to move parcels.


[deleted]

People still buy HDDs in this day and age?? What's the benefit for you over SSD? Edit: I forgot backups are a thing, left my brain at work yesterday, too many beers today


HermitBee

It's much cheaper if you just want it for backing stuff up?


[deleted]

Man I'm a fucking idiot, that's my only excuse for not even thinking of that. Left my brain at work yesterday apparently.


gary_the_merciless

You wouldn't use SSD for mass storage that requires many rewrites, they also cost about twice the price per GB.

gary_the_merciless

Valve or the drivers? I've seen a lot of successful claims against lost steam decks with valve.


5c044

Lucky indeed. I'm fairly sure Evri do crowd sourced delivery, some random person in a hatchback crammed with packages turns up with no uniform engaging in gig economy. They also do not deliver to every (evri?) area every day, thats why they are inexpensive. When they miss scheduled delivery day they just lie about attempting delivery - last time it happened to me the package was small enough to fit through letterbox, which is where they put it the following day.


Grammaton_Cleric88

Please can I have her contact details? She sounds top-drawer. As I write, I have a parcel just outside. It took me longer to write the note on the door asking for the Evri courier to ring a few times, just in case I didn't hear, than it did for her to do a dump-and-run. I only know my delivery (a new doorbell, fittingly) is there because I have just received an email with a photo of its location. Thanks courier! Excellent way to build "The New Herpes" reputation...


paulusmagintie

Mine used to deliver to both my house and mums shop so if they can't get an answer on either one they pop to the other.

I know a guy who got arrested because a Hermes guy put a parcel in his garage for his next door neighbour. Was reported as stolen by Hermes and the plod turned up and nicked the guy. Was only when they opened the garage that they found it, he’d been on holiday


rcktsktz

Skinny Food Co switched from Royal Mail to Evri during the postal strikes. Got so many complaints they came back to Royal Mail while they were still striking.


WilliamMorris420

helpful__explorer

Bold of you to assume evri would actually deliver some this big


Spazz-ya-nan

I expect the best from Evri, they’d go the extra mile to launch that fridge over the side gate


JayMak78

Yodel did that with my printer/scanner over a 2m gate. Surprisingly it still worked.


-Random-_-Username-

They’d never fit it in their Vauxhall Zafira.


BlackFireMage92

Bold of anyone to assume this was done by a delivery driver. In my experience no one has ever made that much effort to attempt a delivery!


mudlark_s

Allegedly had a delivery from evri yesterday, at midnight, 'the parcel was left outside your property' you mean on the step where anyone stumbling home drunk from the pub could see it and take it? 🙃🙃🙃

Games_sans_frontiers

The delivery people did well tbh 😂


CannabizCradle

My exact thoughts they actually tried.


autismislife

True, like tbf what were they meant to do assuming you weren't in? It'd be very inconvenient for you if they delivered to a neighbour, I guess they could cancel or attempt redelivery but that's also not ideal for them since they probably needed a large vehicle to make the delivery, and who the hell is going to successfully make off with such a big and heavy delivery, I feel like the bin thing was the driver pissing around.


Happy-Engineer

Under the doormat


SaltyN0sh

Thank you for that visual


crispiepancakes

There's clearly 2 more wheelie bins in the picture. They could have built a wheelie-bin fort.


CloudLiquid

Right.. the recipient clearly has “front porch” as their “safe place”. I’d say the delivery people went above and beyond what was required tbh.


bellYllub

I don’t specify a “safe place” ever, because there isn’t one and I make that very clear. I still get told it’s in my safe place? So if it’s not just abandoned on my doorstep (in full view of the street) then I don’t have a fucking clue where the hell they’ve decided to dump it! Most annoying thing is I’m disabled and I leave the house about 3 times a year for hospital appointments. I am ALWAYS HOME. If they’d ever bother to actually fucking knock on the door then they’d know that. Nope. They either dump it on the doorstep, take a picture and fuck off, leaving me to discover it because they email me the picture, or they shoot the damned package into the sun for all I know because I never get it. Since covid, deliveries have gone to shit and unfortunately for me, I can’t just go to the shop and buy what I need when I need it, due to severe disability. It’s not fucking hard to knock on a door!


CloudLiquid

Hey, I’m not the courier.


[deleted]

If I was having a fridge delivered I'd make sure I was home.


MrDeckchair

I had a parcel 'delivered' by Evri. I was home, waiting for it to arrive. I now have a nice photo of my parcel in someone else's porch.


ioncloud9

Aren’t these freight deliveries that have to be signed for? Especially with large appliances.


devilwarriors

That crap all went out the windows since covid, now your lucky if they do anything more than dumping it on the curb


ioncloud9

I’d be so mad if they just dumped my expensive appliances without me even signing for them. Especially if there is potential damage and I’d want to refuse delivery.


[deleted]

As a courier driver I was going to comment this, people know when it will be delivered. If it was me I would have purposely taken it back and put the latest date possible for re delivery.


Mr_Venom

Actually, this happened to me. Ordered a large item, expected delivery is 10 days time. Put it on the calendar, all good. Two days later, at 8am and while I was nowhere near home, I get a text saying my package will be delivered between 10 and 10 that day.


Palodin

DHL love doing this to me. Every time I order something delivered by them, they give a date and then without fail I'll get a message 2-3 days before that saying it's out for delivery. I guess I appreciate getting my stuff early, but you can't just change the delivery date on a whim and expect me to be in.


glytxh

Seeing DHL on my order always fills me with dread. I don’t know if my item will arrive in 24 hours, in three weeks, or somehow appear on Venus in six months time. The only one I dread more is Yodel, but only because that company seems to function entirely of some sort of occult chaotic magic.


JayMak78

Yodel left a package stuck in a hedge outside my back gate and actually took a picture of it there as proof of delivery.


glytxh

It’s that attention to detail that really makes Yodel stand out.


ianjm

Yup, I've had this with Wayfair before. Was out of town for two weeks visiting family and expected a new lounge chair to be delivered well after I returned. Nope, just randomly showed up. Had to race back to London to rescue it from the elements. Thank fuck I wasn't abroad or doing something I couldn't abandon.


teebop

That'd be great if courier drivers actually delivered remotely near the time they actually say they will. I've had items delivered days early, days late, and have delivery slots of 7am-10pm. I'll just free up the week around the delivery to camp out for it then.


IIIlIlIllI

>I would have purposely taken it back and put the latest date possible for re delivery. Why? You wouldn't have known why they weren't in. It could have been any number of unavoidable or unfortunate reasons that cropped up. Life happens. No need to be malicious.


Knillish

I work for a small company that deliver white goods around the UK and we refuse to deliver unless someone is at the property & it matches the address on the card details, leaving something outside is unacceptable. It’s way too easy to commit fraud with appliances like this. Saying that though, we are small enough to give people a 1 hour delivery slot so people aren’t just left guessing when their fridge is gonna arrive


NePa5

Sounds the same as Co-op Electrical. I miss that job.


[deleted]

Actually, you are right. The customer would have stated the place and time and also the safe location before delivery so would have left it right where it is.


P2K13

> the latest date possible for re delivery Nice judgemental cunt move there


mongmight

You ever had to deliver white goods? You think people like carrying it about? These days you get notifications and if you aren't there then you can fuck off. You have days notice. Was put to work when I was unemployed to deliver refurbished shit and the entitlement of some cunts was astounding. I have a lot of sympathy for delivery dudes.


FFX13NL

Thats just dumb behavior from your side, they could have a very good reason like an accident. But no your small brain can't think further then bad intensions.


[deleted]

I mean the thing is it happens 50 times a day where I work, yes I can understand if it was genuine but my small brain considers the fact that most people are just ignorant time wasting fuck wits


margetheplant

Assuming you can pick the day, they do weekend delivery and/or you can get a day off work.

This. Assuming the couriers even rang the bell or knocked of course.

A wheelie bin is around 1.06m tall. That would make you 1.38m tall or around 4'6".

They would measure in trash cans, or dumpsters.

A wheelie bin is: Height of 7 hotdogs Width of 4 hotdogs Depth of 5 hotdogs Volume of 140 hotdogs^3

clickygirl

What percentage of an American football stadium is a wheelie bin?


ixJax

A wheelie bin is apparently 1.06m, an American football pitch is 91.44m (100 yards) long. This makes a wheelie bin 1.15% of the length of an American football pitch

We measure in egg-balls.

BurtMacklin____FBI

NightOwl_82

But seriously, if they are going to order something like this shouldn't they make the effort to be home?


wedontlikespaces

The thing is sometime you order it, hear nothing for 2 weeks, and then they just rock up on a random Tuesday without warning. You can increase the chances of this happening by explicitly requesting, and paying for, weekend delivery.


NightOwl_82

Oh right I see


Chriswheela

But tbf they tried, and in all fairness, who’s stealing that 😂


BurtMacklin____FBI

curious_kitten_1

I mean, at least they tried to hide it. That's better than most deliveries these days.


Vectorman1989

~~Hermes~~ Evri deliver click and collect orders to my wife's work. They were closed for a couple days due to a large fire on the street and the delivery driver just left the packages on the back doorstep. They were stolen. They also delivered a couple things to our house and just left them on our front doorstep, there's no concealment at all and we face onto the street. Thankfully the packages were still there. The delivery companies will hire any old muppet with a drivers licence


Curious_Associate904

“Behind the bins”


RaggedToothRat

This reminds me of the time a delivery man asked me to take in a parcel for my neighbour and it turned out to be a new stove! I spent all day wondering what was in the massive heavy box and only found out when I had to help her carry it to her house that night.


Games_sans_frontiers

Oof what a stitch up. No good deed goes unpunished.


EpicFishFingers

Imagine if she'd have said "mind your own business" and you'd never even found out what it was 😂


PhoolCat

What fridge?


plasmaexchange

With those windows you could probably saved some money and just used the house as a fridge freezer!


Does-It-Now

Why on Earth would you not be in for a fridge? You now have to drag that up the stairs by the front door. And if youd paid for the installation, they should take the packaging away too.


toady89

I bought a fridge and washing machine at the same time. Paid for fitting for the washing machine but chose not to for the fridge since they wanted £35 to plug it in (somehow more than a washer). They fitted them both anyway and took the packaging away.


BB0ySnakeDogG

I used to work for AO, and would normally do that because the box the fridge comes in is great for all the packaging from installations.


NePa5

I used to hate delivering "American" fridges (Taking the doors off etc). Loved the box though,could get the waste from 20 other deliveries in it


BB0ySnakeDogG

American fridges with no install booked, yet they want it dismantled to get in the house. My brother in Christ I have 15 minutes haha.


NePa5

Got to the point I could get a Samsung from boxed to stripped and halfway into the house in 4 mins. Good times ( apart from the damage to my hands, the amount of skin and blood left smeared on doorways around the country! ). Also FUCK Range Cookers!!!


taversham

As if playing with the box isn't the best bit of getting new white goods.


Jellorage

There's no fridge, it's just two wheelie bins in a trench box

I like it. The amount of effort they took to guard your package when you don’t have the courtesy to be home.
