The deliveries are finally coming to our actual doors again after months of this exhausting fight. I am relieved that we forced them to stop playing games with our mail. We will be keeping a close eye on our front porches to ensure this does not start up again.

We, the residents and supporters of Castleton, demand that UPS stop delivering packages addressed to residents to the Amazon warehouse, where they are kept for days or weeks. Our packages should be delivered to the places they are addressed to and signed for by the actual residents, not some mythical Amazon employee by the name of "Woods" who is always listed by UPS as the signatory for these misdirected deliveries. In addition, we demand that the Schodack Town Supervisor's Office, headed by Supervisor David Harris, investigate this egregious situation and act to resolve it with UPS and the Amazon warehouse management.

Seeing this many people acknowledge the frustration we deal with every single day is a relief. The path ahead remains exhausting but at least we are no longer fighting this battle alone.

Agreed, I feel bad for the UPS delivery men as I am thinking this is not their choice but the UPS system. It's not the lost package or untimeliness to me as much as the money and time wasted trying to figure out where the heck the order is. I'm ordering on line because of cost and Covid so this is ridiculous.

We had medication that was in refrigerator pack delayed delivery to us for 4 days. We and the shipper did not know where it was as it was signed as received by Woods

Thank you for taking action on this -- the Amazon warehouse was supposed to make this sort of things easier/more convenient for Schodack residents (as promised by the county gov't) but the exact opposite has occurred. Happy to help more in whatever capacity I can.

My daughter has a package signed by WOODS that was missing for over a week, before it mysteriously appeared in our porch overnight. We spent a considerable amount of time trying to figure out what happened to it, in addition to wasting money on a second purchase (for items she needed).

This actually happens with non-Amazon deliveries. My first missing package was from JC Penney's and the second was from a winery in CA.

I talked to the driver. If a package goes through their Syracuse hub, that hub puts everything to the 12033 zip code to amazon. No one seems to do anything. Can't even talk to a live person at UPS. Terrible.

You show a UPS truck.....maybe the problem is UPS. I watched a UPS driver dump 8 packages on the lawn in front of the mail room (when someone offered to hold the door for him, he declined.) Rather than delivering to the doors of the people in the complex he dumped and left, for any one to take. One hour later I still could not get thru to UPS to report it to a live person. Could be two things going here.
