I had a business account with them at one time. They stole $1500 from me. When I called, the "check was always in the mail". Amazon outsources ALL of their decision makers. The supervisors have no contact with them except email.
Good luck! |

Bollards or big rocks are pretty effective.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Bollards or big rocks are pretty effective. Good preventative measures. But for justice, when you have an a-hole driving in your yard, a good axle breaking hole that is tough to see is far more entertaining. Or... spike strips... or boards with nails in them. Would be pretty interesting for him to have to explain 4 flat tires. Of course... if you have access to a land mine, then all of my previous suggestions are null and void. But video should be mandatory for any approach. :D |

The drivers are terrible, they have no clue that they should back in. I watched them drive through neighbors yard.
They pull in, busy road, then can't figure out how to leave. Or just park in the middle of a state highway blocking traffic. UPS and Fedex always back in, how hard is it. |

I'm going to reduce my ordering from them by 90%, but yes I thought about large rocks or also putting in lots of expensive driveway lights and sending them a huge bill every time one of their felons can't stay on the driveway.
Other than property damage, OPSEC is a concern of mine with Amazon drivers. I know my UPS guy. I know my FedEx guy. They are both professionals, as driving is their career. With Amazon on the other hand, it's always a surprise to see what new winner they have dredged out of the closest section 8 that's making $15/hour to scope out all your sweet tools and toys if you leave your garage door open (I'm rural and my garage can't be seen from the road). Or to notice your Betsy Ross flag, or Trump bumper sticker etc. It's a different, new driver EVERY SINGLE TIME, and they all look sketchy AF. So there are other good reasons to stop ordering from Amazon. Not to mention half the time they just throw my boxes up on the porch. And also not to mention that f'ing dbag Bezos....... |

One Amazon driver asked if they could follow my driveway that goes around and behind my house so they could turn around. I said NO. GTFO with that crap. My UPS guy I have no problem with this although he only did that once because he had a very heavy package and asked where I wanted it unloaded. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: catch it on video and send it their customer service line. then bill them for the damage done to you yard. This^^^^^ I had them back into my steep driveway scraping it up with their big ass van. Filed a claim and they were willing to pay to have new concrete poured if I wanted it. I didn't want the headache and found a mix of acid would etch away the marks and sent them a bill. They promptly paid it. |

So I'm not the only one that has a lot of trouble getting my packages delivered professionally.
You guys are lucky. Hell, I can't even get them delivered to the right house. It is a single family home with the numbers well posted with reflective numbers on the mail box and the Amazon drivers delivers can't manage to get my stuff on my porch. |

It took me a serious effort to get through to them I had this problem. Finally Amazon support asked me to go on Google maps, right click where I wanted the deliveries and give them the GPS coordinates, that solved the problem. Prior to that I pointed to the big green house numbers on every mailbox for 911, they refused to look at them and said they go where the GPS says. |

Hedgehogs (not the animal, the other kind).
If you can weld and have any metal recycling places near you making them out of scrap will save money. If you have a big enough stick welder (250+ amps with big rod size and extra dark lense hood) three chunks of railroad tracks about 4' long welded together as a "+" shape on the x and y axis and then do the third on the z-axis with it's middle tucked tight into one of the corners tight into the previous cross. Weld all three together real good where they touch and make sure you get good deep penetration strong weld. For way jacked up 4x4 type trucks and/or extra soft earth deployment then you might want to go bigger but usually 4' lengths is about right for most situations. Lengths of railroad track with the big ass stick welder is the lowest cost way to make multi-use hedgehogs for standard vehicles (if someone makes a run at them with an actual bulldozer or tank that's different). You can drop all the way down to using lengths of #6 rebar but they are only good for one incident and get mangled in the process of mangling the offending vehicular trespasser. Check your scrap yard and see what's available and looks big enough and weldable and suit up with full chest leathers long welding gloves and wear a welding blanket like a kilt with good boots and crank the welder all the way up with a big rod and get to welding some up. Redneck farmer solution, but it works for critical entry point denial. Never have been able to make up enough of them for full zone defense. |

The orange, fiberglass sticks used to mark driveways and parking lots for snow plowing might be cheap prevention. Train him until he knows where to go...like a puppy.

A long time ago my Uncle was having problems with folks not staying in his graveled lanes well.
He finally had all us young'uns install metal fence posts every 4 feet along both sides. The problem magically stopped. And yes, there are short runs of three paved tracks for passing. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: May not work all that well on softer earth. Semi-confirmed from my own experience with my hedgehogs. I'm working on a much larger scale to actually stop vehicles not just pop tires. But I have found that my hedgehogs need to be increased in size by at least 50% to remain effective in deployment on softer ground areas of the perimeter, especially down where I get a lot of water pooling on my bottom land section. |

I got an Amazon delivery this week. I live on a 55 mph rural two lane, pretty busy.
Driver parks in road, wrong side of road facing traffic, on top of a hill. I open the door as she gets to door, get package. Driver returns to van, BACKS IN MY DRIVEWAY to turn around then leaves. WTF, why not back in to deliver the package instead of blocking the road |

I had a problem with the guy who delivered news papers to my neighbor in the wee hours of the morning. The jackass would swing very wide and go through my yard. I called the news paper 3 times and said fuck this. Put a sign up that said stay off grass and used 10 pennies and furring strips pained green. Dude drove over the sign, but I got at least 2 of his tires that night. Problem solved. |

Shopping center near me had a few.
They just added about a dozen more a few days ago. People think anything flat and clear is there to drive on. Even with 4WD I was always polite and stayed on the gravel. |
