I just watched the Local News, and already the Brown Truck Followers are stealing your packages right after drop off at your door. Today a man who has a security video camera, saw a woman run up to his door, steal several Christmas packages and made a fast get away in a Pick Up Truck. Unfortunately, it's that time of the year. Uhh members know all about Brown Truck Deliveries.

It is a shame indeed, so maybe if they change to a orange or Blue trucks, less packages would be lost to Brown truck followers. 😉🤔🙄

Maybe that is what happened.

I recently checked on a book that I ordered but never received. USPS says they delivered it to my mailbox but I've never seen it.

But the U.S.P.S. do not have big brown trucks, so you need to ask U.P.S, which are not allowed to use U.S.P.S. mailboxes for their deliveries.

But someone who follows the big brown trucks might just do the same with those white trucks from USPS.

I have all valuable items being shipped sent to my P. O. Box. I go by it just about every day.

If you really have a problem with that you can ask them to deliver to your local UPS store or secure drop point if you have one.

Sadly, this is an annual problem nationwide, during the Thanksgiving/Christmas Holidays.

USPS is U.S. Postal Services. UPS (Brown Truck) is United Parcel Service. It can be confusing.

Yes, I know it's that time of year again. If I get a lousy Sephora box (makeup-small), I have to get it so someone won't get it. It's dangerous to leave anything out on your porch where it can be seen. What happened to honest ppl???

THIEVES are everywhere, if you get a group of 25-50 people together there generally will be a thief among them.

Around here UPS doesn't drop off at the house if you're not home, it ends up at the local Post Office (sometimes even if you are home).
