Parcels get thrown around loads at my place, so I see no harm in throwing parcels into the back of my van or onto the floor. Likely they will have been thrown around in transit like that so why not chuck them over. Who cares anymore

Think before you think you are doing them a favour? Not in take them back.

Maybe it’s just me but unless that gate is 7ft tall (unlikely, most are about 6 and a half feet) I can easily reach over, undo that top bolt, leave a parcel, close the gate, slide the bolt back across.

Not that I would of course.

Thats probably what happened but not as dramatic for twitter as saying the postman lobbed it over the fence, but It is also a recorded parcel which he doesn't seem to be bothered by.

The chances of that parcel landing so 'square' are extremely slim.
Take away the fat it's a recorded, it's fr from the worst safe place I've seen.

If the postie can gain access to place it there then potentially someone else could gain access to nick it

That's the same for pretty much any safeplace apart from a porch with a latch that locks when you close it.
For the record, I wouldn't have left it there, but you get plenty requests on PDA to safeplace items in spaces just like that.

Thread is 5yrs old people.

Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Just got to play it by whatever's best for you.

There are people in our office that constantly put items in bins, tracked or not. I will never do that unless I have spoken to the customer first but that is rare. I will only safe place an item if there is a garden shed, greenhouse or it does look secure. For me its just as quick to write out a card than it is to look for a safe place if I dont know the round or the customer. For me its all about covering my back.

If you want to totally cover your back, if not in take it back.
