Default Couriers - Evening Delivery
Why in this day of age when we are increasingly becoming a 24/7 society dont we have evening delivery options with couriers? Many people work strange shifts, and are not available during the day to accept deliverys, and the fact that couriers state that they deliver anytime between the hours of 7am-6pm doesnt help!

you always can get a note on your order so they dont deliver and you go get it at the drop point of the delivery service.
thats what i do since i always work when they try to reach me.

Might be difficult finding a place in the dark and/or might be more dangerous.

If they work up until 6pm it'll be dark anyway in the winter.

I don't think he wants like 4am delivery options, but 6pm is just too early. I would say 9-10pm is a good cut off time. Most people would be home from work and it's not too late.

I'm not saying that's the reason for sure, just making a guess.

I meant delivering upto 9/10pm. Couriers are a pain where I live as due to my postcode (CV**) I have a 40 mile round trip to collect from courier depots. Yet if I lived 1/2 a mile further north, I would be in a different postcode (LE**) with a 16 mile round trip to the courier depots! (Coalville instead of Coventry)
