In speaking with workers from ALL shipping businesses (USPS, FedEx, UPS), due to COVID-19, an actual Recipient signature is currently not required. However, what is supposed to happen for “direct signature required” items is the carrier should be ringing the doorbell and ask to see ID. They should NOT be leaving a box on the front porch and/or in a mailbox without seeing identification. Yet, that seems to be exactly what is happening way too often (several times with me as well). Totally irresponsible & unacceptable considering the immense value for some of these shipments.
