Delivery driver caught making package mistake that frustrates most Australians

A delivery driver was attacked after he was caught throwing a parcel on the ground just seconds before he was caught in the act.

In footage of the reckless delivery, the courier is seen dropping the package on the ground instead of at the mailbox or at the front door.

He turns to leave, but not before the owner catches him in the act.

As the man approaches to collect his package, the courier quickly collects it and hands it to him with an apologetic smile.

The disgruntled customer shared the video on social media on Thursday with the caption: “How my Speedpak delivery arrived yesterday. Thanks eBay’.

Dozens of Australians shared similar horror stories in the comments.

“I thought he was just going to roll down the passenger window and throw it away, if that had already been done,” one person said.

“I had the same thing, but instead the driver threw it at my door from the road,” a second commented.

A third shared: “This happens to every second delivery I receive now, no care taken.”

Daily Mail Australia has contacted eBay for comment.

It comes after an Australia Post worker was fired after throwing a package on the pavement outside the wrong address.

Adding insult to injury, the delivery driver then sent the woman a photo of the package in a “safe location” on the way as proof it had been delivered.

The woman complained to Australia Post, who responded quickly and have since assured that the driver no longer works for them.

“Australia Post has strict protocols in place for the delivery of mail and parcels, and the driver’s actions here clearly did not meet the high standards we expect,” a spokesperson said.

“We have contacted the customer to apologize and can confirm the driver involved no longer delivers for Australia Post.”
