    or say I order equipment that is also used by pot growers and farms but its actually for something else, can delivery drivers volunteer that info to authorities?

    Does UPS, Fedex, USPS or any deliver curriers have a non-disclousue policy when it comes to customer's delivered items??
    As if you're any more interesting than the guy down the street ordering an even larger number of "polymer bayonets."

      another incident was one time i wasn't home to sign for the package, instead of leaving a notice, he went to my neighbor asking if they'll sign for it and give it to me when i get home. i never request my neighbor can sign the driver assume we (neighbor and I) are buddy buddy. i was so mad, and my neighbor now knows where i ordered from.

      obviously they get pay based on per delivery made.

      information and privacy is a major concern these days as you never know who will use those info back at you.

      i hope you guys don't give your SS# (optional) when DROSing
      UPS and Fedex Express Drivers get paid hourly and not per delivery or packages.

      Fedex Ground Drivers are contracters and they get paid differently than UPS and Fedex Express drivers.

              What do you consider too much. Probably 10% of what some of us buy.


              I just tell my UPS driver to quit *****ing. Because of me he gets paid to work out.

                  Tip him $20 for Christmas and it'll all be good.

                    Delivery drivers just want to dump stuff and move on. If it's legal to ship, why worry about it.

                      Holy ****, y'all. Those of you saying you've had 20,000+ rounds of ammo delivered... Are you really dropping $20,000 on a single ammo purchase? Wow. I buy about 1,000 rounds every other month or so and even that is expensive...

                        Yeah, I'm not happy about my UPS driver knowing about my ammo deliveries
                        I'm sure they are keeping track of that information to sell to the crips or bloods

                          My last ammo buy was $5,600 and change for 10k of .223/5.56 and 15k of 9mm. Just got here a couple of days ago. No way I'm going to spend a buck per round on a purchase of that size. I'm giving a fair bit of the 9mm away as Christmas presents, but I'm keeping the .223 to eventually use for reloading as it's all NATO 5.56 brass (lots of LakeCity) that has already been decrimped. Saves me that part of the prep and I get to shoot it first.

                          The big box has 4000 rounds in it.

                            Do you realize Ups dispatches an average residential route with well over 200 stops per day ? They want 30 stops per on road hour which equates to one delivery every other minute.They can require the driver to work up to 14 hours per day,62.5 hours per week and the driver can't refuse once instructed or face termination .The weight limit per parcel is 150lbs and the driver usually has no help while hauling parcels up multiple flights of stairs. Ups requires drivers to find an alternate delivery location (neighbor)if consignee isn't present to sign for signature required packages or if no safe release location is available.All the while maintaining safe driving/working methods to protect oneself and the community...Give your Ups driver a break people.

                            I highly doubt your Ups driver gives a rats *** how much ammo you buy, he/she just wants to finish the route and get home safely .

                              Probably the best source of local prepping supplies when the SHTF.

                              My UPS guy whom I've never really talked to, asked out of the blue what's a good online source for buying a Glock 43. Calguns!!!

                                No such thing as too much. I'd be more worried he'd break into your house and take your guns
