Neighbours,Recycling and the Final Score..

[monkeymutha]

But why didn't Royal Mail realise that with the extra time involved "down to the discretion of the OPG" means that the OPG will not try the neighbour ?
They may as well not have brought the new scheme in.

Absolutely. I haven't and won't be leaving any packets with neighbours, not even if I have time to do so.

Mind you, today I had a packet which I 739'd. The neightbour (next door) had their front door open and I thought about just leaving it inside their door without telling them and then filling out the neighbour bit on the 739 card? Are we allowed to do this? Leave with neighbour without getting neighbours permission if the neighbours door is open.

No

If the neighbour agrees to do so, the delivery OPG will record the neighbouring address onto the P739 delivery card, and will then post this at the original address.

Items P739'd and returned to the D.O.....15
Items delivered to neighbour.................1

The Spinster Sisters..happy and hatchet face,next door neighbours in an "assisted living self-contained community" as i think they call these places now.
Rumour is happy was actually married once but her sister didn't take to him and he mysteriously disappeared.
Anyway the packet,most likely sour boiled sweets...was for the personality deficient one but happy came to her door down the hall(psychic or nosey?) and told me her sister was in Motherwell...and left it at that as if no other explanation was necessary.
Anyone from Central Scotland will tell you.......no-one goes to Motherwell without a bloody good reason...packet left.
As i wrote out the P739 with the details of which neighbour i had left the packet with she said that's a bit pointless,my sister's almost blind and i read her post for her.

Well, today I broke my duck..............left one with a neighbour, although it was a BT router and it was to the alternative address on the packet..............does that still count though

Unless she had gone to see one of the planning team?
Personality deficient......? She should fit in well.
Almost blind.........? Wouldn't be a hindrance.

s**t. It was a job interview.

I left a packet with a neighbour today, I don't usually but I thought I'd try it. I was awarded with a young, attractive lady with huge baps answering the door,

If the neighbours a nanny goat, or a horse looking over the fence, can you shove the packet in it,s mouth and leave instructions for the recipient to don their wellies when collecting.

No answer at door but i spotted a rabbit in its hutch in the backgarden so i said mr rabbit will you kindly accept this packet for your neighbour, to which mr rabbit was silent, that led me to believ it was a yes. So hey presto i left the packet with mr rabbit in his/her hutch. And everybody is happy!

I hope for your sake that the training you had from managers about leaving stuff with neighbours oked leaving stuff with animals... in writing.

1 left with a neighbour.
2 point blank refusals.

[clashcityrocker]

What happens if:
Day 1 - packet left with neighbour.
Day 2 - packet is left lying outside the addressee's front door?
