I have an order coming in delivered by DPD, got an email confirming the date of the delivery and they sent me the pin for me to get the delivery.
I plan on DNA because the product is too heavy.
What can I tell the courier or what is a good excuse for him to leave it outside of my house?
Also if this fails and I will have to give the pin to the courier is there any other option I have ?

Also, the item is shoes worth roughly 160EUR.

EDIT: It worked I have successfully received a refund for the shoes. And I returned the cheaper pair.
Advice: formulate your method beforehand to not run into the same troubles as I did
