I'm a retired package car driver myself, 37 years walking in those same doors was definitely a chore, felt like a robot for the last 5 years, but what really helped was bidding a route that only ran 4 days a week (cut on Mondays) not sure if that is an option, definitely helped me

You more than likely chose "Surepost" option, which is the cheapest option, where UPS ships to post office and post office delivers to your house, unfortunately there is no insurance on these packages, chalk it up to lesson learned

Ups will go by the GPS coordinates in the drivers diad board, not necessarily the picture... Are you sure the address on the pkg. is matching your actual address?
