Probably not given that some times anyone can sign for it

I think that is an okay policy because it allows minors to receive packages in their name and still allow a parent/legal guardian/adult to sign for the package. Plus, if the intended recipient is not at home at the time, then someone else could legally sign for the package on their behalf. I would think that is handy for time sensitive deliveries (business or personal).

I will say I do like your suggestion about taking a photo of the person receiving it and steps to minimize the physical contact between driver and recipient.

Bags are 1 use, then tossed...the pylon could be touched by 100+ peeps/day -- JoesterVT 03/10/2020 12:54PM

I think it also has a lot to do with what comes BACK over the counter... -- HokieSignGuy 03/10/2020 12:59PM
