Whenever I order takeout to a relative’s house, delivery drivers almost always call and ask me to come outside to the end of the drive to collect it, instead of knocking at the front door.
What confuses me is that they’ll often already be out of the car or off their bike, so it’s not like they’re avoiding getting out. The house is easy to access, clearly sign-posted, numbered correctly on Google Maps, and works fine on sat nav.
The delivery note always says “PLEASE KNOCK AT FRONT DOOR THANK YOU”, but they still call nearly every time. This doesn’t happen when I order to my own home.
The house is in the nicest part of a somewhat rough town, could that be why? I’ve tried finding other people online with the same issue but I don’t really see any posts online about it.
