Packages Are Increasingly Left Outside Doors with Recipients’ Consent

Packages from online orders are increasingly delivered outside front doors. Consumers agree to this delivery method when ordering or by setting delivery instructions. n-tv ↗

The recipient can decide where the courier leaves the shipment with just a few clicks. This procedure addresses situations when the addressee is not at home at the time of delivery. The package then does not have to wait for another delivery attempt, be handed over to a neighbor, or be stored at another collection point.

However, delivery outside a house or the entrance to an apartment building means that the shipment remains at the location designated by the recipient even when they are absent. This method of receipt therefore mainly concerns households that accept having the package left without personal contact with the courier.

The expansion of this option is related to the growing number of online orders and the need for more flexible delivery. Recipients can choose the location where they want to find the shipment if the courier reaches them while they are away from home. The trend shows that delivery without directly handing the package to the addressee is becoming a common part of parcel delivery.
