Will USPS deliver to the front door or the community mailbox? - normie11 - 12-23-2017
The drop address I am using is a house that is for sale. The neighborhood has one mail receptacle with smaller compartments for each house. They all require keys to access. I'm ordering a package that will probably fit in that mailbox, and I'm wondering—will they leave it there or by the front door? I could request for USPS to leave it at the door, but then I would be held responsible if the package was lost, and I plan to refund this. The package is getting delivered tomorrow.

As far as I'm aware, UPS delivers (In your case) to the residential address.
In some localities and depending on the circumstances, UPS may deliver to the local post office and the Item Is then delivered (from the post office) to the mailbox.

You must have misread as he stated using USPS.
Anyways, they will only leave it in the mailbox unless you leave authorization online for them to leave it at the door.
