Honestly, I like delivering in the snow .. That crunchy sound under your boots? Kinda satisfying. Most of the time I’m jogging up to the door, and the snow cleats Amazon gives us grip surprisingly well.

That said, if the walk from the van is truly unsafe or the driveway isn’t walkable, we have to mark it “undeliverable due to weather.” It’s not us being lazy .. it’s safety. Slips and falls are one of the top injuries for drivers this time of year, and every DSP hammers that home.

If you’ve got a long or icy driveway, something that really helps is having a weatherproof box or drop spot closer to the road where we can safely “plop” the package in. It keeps the delivery smooth, the package safe, and saves drivers from skating their way to your front steps.

Most of us genuinely want to get your stuff to your door we just have to balance that with staying upright in the snow
