lazy neighbours not taking in their own parcels!

[purpledalmation]

AIBU to leave this huge great big parcel sat in my hallway until the lazy sods over the road come and collect it? Today there were both their cars in the drive and the curtains partly closed. 11 am. Poor delivery driver banged on their door and no one answered. They have form for not answering the door. So she asks me to take it in. I do, even though I dislike the neighbours (generally arses about parking near their house) but the delivery driver is clearly cold and wet.

Neighbours have not been seen but cars still there at 12 and curtains open. 8 hours later no show. I assume the girl put a note through their door?

I refuse to stagger across the road with the parcel. Suggestions?

Do they work nights ?

Stop taking the parcels in if it's a problem?
Most delivery drivers will try and redeliver 3 times.

Also, if you know they're in, go and get them to collect ?

^This.

My work means I often end up getting things delivered and cannot always get to the door in time (although I generally do). I have explained to couriers not to leave my parcels with neighbours and have a sign up to that effect, which thankfully most oblige.

Unfortunately, every now and again I find out 'nosy neighbour' has come out and volunteered to take in my parcel (footage shows the courier has not even gone to their door), only to moan at me at length about how inconvenient it is for them and then demand to know the contents of the parcel. I have repeatedly, explicitly told the neighbour (nicely) not to take in my parcels, but it seems they are too keen to moan/find out what's inside (not even anything interesting).

Don't be like 'nosy neighbour'. Stop taking in parcels if you don't want to and then blaming the recipient, because that's on you.

Also, couriers often do NOT post a note to say which address the parcel is at when left with a neighbour and online tracking may just say 'left with neighbour', but not specify which one. So there's a good chance your neighbour doesn't know you have their parcel if you don't tell them.

My postman appears to have stopped putting a card through the door. Over the last six months he's asked my neighbors to take on the packages. Each time my neighbor has knocked on my door and signed and looked mildly pissed of that I haven't knocked for it. But every time I had no idea that it was there.

Personally, I'd I take in something for a neighbor, when I see their car there I just take it round. It's not a big deal. I find it bizarre that some here would rather have a parcel I their easy for days than just pop it across to their neighbour. Talk about cutting of your nose to spite your face.

I'm surprised at some of the miserable whiny responses about saying no.

Unless you've fallen out with your neighbour, why wouldn't you take it in?

It's a kind thing to do and takes no effort at all.

If it's a massive parcel that's going to cause a proper obstruction in your home, maybe.

FFS, so many typos.

Refuse any parcels that are not for you!

Update
So, it sat here for 48 hours almost blocking our small hallway, and DH got fed up enough to take it over (having seen them go in, so we knew they were home, rang the doorbell, knocked and they still didn't answer so he left it on the doorstep. half an hour later it was gone.

Not taking in for them again. proper CF neighbours.

Have history of seeing my nice NDN park her car outside their house (not blocking anything) for an hour while she moved some boxes and they went berserk and parked their car outside her house. They have a 3 car drive

they shouted at NDN I should say.
