Hi all!

I have a cataog host who used her work address so that the packages would be delivered to her there so they wouldn't be sitting at her house all day withe her not home. Well, they shipped out today and are being sloted for delivery TOMORROW!! No on is there on Saturday. Do you think they will just drop them off, or do you think they will hold them till Monday?
 
I think they will hold them until Tuesday (no deliveries on Monday) ....when I was supposed to get a shipment on a Saturday..my driveway wasn't plowed and there weren't any cars...he deemed it as "business closed," and didn't leave it.

Whew! I hope that's what he does with her delivery!
 
I called FedEx asking them to leave it in the shed; and he didn't leave it at all! I would call them and ask them to hold it until Tuesday....they were very nice when I spoke with them.
 
That doesn't make sense though. Fed Ex leaves packages on my porch all the time when I'm out and so did UPS.
 
If a business is closed on Saturdays I would assume that they wouldn't leave it and will retry on Tuesday.
