Hi there,
I recommend you ship via express mail with a tracking number and signature on delivery. Normally with any parcel if nobody's home you get a little card and have to pick up the parcel at the local PO. With some courier services (Fedex etc.) they will keep coming back 3 times and call the recipient to arrange a good time to drop off. Most deliveries seem to be early morning between 9 and 10am (at least in my area).

And btw, they definitely wouldn't drop it on the floor!

hey hon - as per my PM they will leave you a card and you have to pick it up from the local PO.

They should leave a card - my mail guy turns up at around 7am here, which means I'm normally home lol.
