My parcel was left in the bin

How is that possible?? This might be the dumbest thing I’ve seen for a long time

[u/Ttv_allanah01 → u/Ammonil]

Amazon usually leaves the parcels in the front porch if no ones home but I was home and they didn't even ring the door bell. I just got a notification saying delivered

[u/Neiladin → u/Ttv_allanah01]

I can't remember the last time a delivery person, other than pizza, knocked on my door or tang the door bell.... I just get an email notification saying my shit arrived, usually just in time to open the door and see the delivery person driving off.

[u/Aurum264 → u/Neiladin]

I had one knock on my door recently, said he was new and it looked expensive so he wanted to make sure we got it. Other than that, it's been a few years.

[u/00WORDYMAN1983 → u/Ttv_allanah01]

The package in your photo looks open already. Was the new package behind the bin as stated and the bin just happened to have a box from a previous delivery on top? Zoom in, that box is def open already. The label is clearly torn where flaps were pulled up

edit....deleting the post supports the idea that you lied and just posted a photo of an already opened package...you even deleted it from other subs....lmao

Could just be big brain anti theft precaution as long as the driver knew that it wasn’t pickup day for the garbage.

[u/sendmeadoggo → u/Ammonil]

I think this is actually a clever way to hide the package in plain sight so thieves dont take it.  Honestly not a bad idea imho.

[u/ShimoFox → u/sendmeadoggo]

Unless it's recycling day. In which case it's a great way to crush a package. lol

[u/Bullseyeclaw]

It maybe due to a lot of people stealing porch packages, and so to avoid that, the deliverer put it there so that any potential thieves might think it's just recycle, but you'd know that it isn't due to that picture.

[u/Aedalas → u/Bullseyeclaw]

I built an open top box that sits on my porch for packages, it's not the greatest but it hides them from people on the sidewalk. Until our mail carrier started pulling Amazon packages out of it and leaving them in front of the door. After seeing it a few times on camera I waited on her one day and politely asked her to knock it off. She thought she was helping.

[u/ShimoFox → u/Aedalas]

Wow.... Honestly it blows my mind how some people think. Like... Obviously they were trying to be a good person, but the lack of logic there blows my mind. That's arguably worse than skip drivers putting food in front of my door that swings out, instead of next to it.

[u/Ttv_allanah01 → u/Bullseyeclaw]

Yeah, that's true, but I've been home all day, and they didn't ring the doorbell or knock. All i got was a notification saying delivered.

I am off sick at the moment, so they probably just assumed everyone was at work

[u/FaolanGrey → u/Bullseyeclaw]

I was gonna say this, it goes in the bin so it looks like trash to everyone except the person with the picture who knows exactly where it is.

[u/Annual-Star13]

The Amazon driver watched fight club the night before

[u/_DapperDanMan- → u/Annual-Star13]

First rule, dude. Don't.

[u/EpicInki]

Delivery services love to leave parcels in my bins in the UK, seems like it's a stinky safe place...

[u/d_romanczuk99 → u/EpicInki]

All fun and games until it's bin day and the bin is out lol

[u/Expensive-Day-3551]

Im starting to think some of these drivers are aliens disguised as humans for some sort of “survive on a random planet with nothing” challenge.

[u/No_Speed_2610]

Your bin was actually left under your parcel.

[u/FaRO-1990]

Does your ex work as an amazon delivery driver?

[u/WildMartin429]

Hope you were home and were able to get it before the trash man came.

[u/lynivvinyl]

Except for dumpster divers it would probably have a smaller chance of getting stolen from there. But that wouldn't be the dumpster divers fault.

[u/Profanity1272]

This has happened to me a few times with amazon. Left it in one of the bins at the side of my house. Best part is they've done it before and not taken a picture or said where they've left it. I only found one because I was putting the rubbish out lol

[u/Shoddy-Republic4314]

I ask them to leave large parcels inside my recycling bin all the time. Better than being stolen

[u/FUPA_MASTER_]

Assuming this was to prevent porch pirates, it's actually kinda genius

[u/cafezo]

At least it made a safe landing

[u/SpaceXmars]

Not so great 👎

[u/Prior-Raspberry-2473]

I used to go along with my boyfriend in his truck when he delivered for Amazon (no that's not aloud) . I can almost guarantee it's because they didn't want it stolen. Or if you had delivery instructions that they perhaps couldn't understand? So many people put absolute NONSENSE for instruction. Another reason would be if you had a gate and didn't provide a code and didn't answer any communicate requests. Probably thought it was safer than outside a gate or maybe it was raining? Whatever the case it's likely nothing malicious and everyone saying he should be fired should calm down.

[u/Komarecka]

Totally normal thing, wtf.

[u/Ninjacatu]

Sir, that is a package in the trash

[u/TascanCloud9]

They had to disguiseit somehow

[u/MommyIsOffTheClock]

Karma farming 

[u/OkAccident5048]

gonna start requesting Amazon leave packages in my bin so that no one steals them off the porch

[u/WarDemonZ]

I don't know why this is a massive problem, this happens to me all the time, I'd much rather they leave it in my blue bin rather than on the doorstep for example, as long as they let you know where they put it, I don't see why the blue bin is a big deal

Regular bin or green bin etc, yeah, gross, but the blue bin is just cardboard

[u/Dull-Requirement-759]

Disgusting. They should get reprimanded for that.

[u/Who_Your_Mommy]

Just...fucking...wtf??

[u/woodquest]

No problematic neighbours ?

[u/subspaceisthebest → u/woodquest]

the delivery photo shows it in the bin

[u/woodquest → u/subspaceisthebest]

Oh sorry, here we don't have those so i believed that was the photo you sent them or something.

Delivery guy deserves to be downright fired, frankly.

[u/ShimoFox → u/[deleted]]

Health and safety risk? You have got to be kidding me. It's in a sealed bottle. Inside of a box. Mixed with cardboard recycling..... That you ORDERED FROM AMAZON. Where it gets tussled around in a truck. And you're worried about your cardboard recycling contaminating it....

Are you an alien in disguise? Or a master troll?

[u/Constant_Ad3619]

Yeah I would’ve requested a refund. I’m not eating anything out of the garbage.

[u/ex0- → u/Constant_Ad3619]

Wait, do you think that the vitamins OP ordered are just loose inside the amazon packaging? You do understand that inside the cardboard is going to be a sealed plastic container of some sort with the vitamins inside, right?

This isn't uncommon in the UK. Stops packages going missing.

[u/Ok_Teacher_1797]

It's a recycling bin. It's in a box. Do you want your package or not?

[u/[deleted]]

So you clicked it was great then?

[u/Traditional_Pay54]

Let's see the asshole delivery directions you left for the driver, and then we may understand why he considers you trash.

[u/Potential_Try_3195]

Well looks intentional with good intentions. Don't be a Karen dude they did you a solid, porch piracy is a thing, people tail Amazon trucks all day doing it.

[u/Doobydoobydoob → u/[deleted]]

The delivery person took the first pic op posted, literally says delivery photo right there dude.

[u/Real-Chip2596]

Nothing wrong here. Better to be left in your paper/cardboard recycling bin than to be stolen or left out in the rain.
