To insure, you can go to USPS on line, sign up for "Informed Mail Delivery" (free). You can get email, or text message each day that mail or pkgs will be delivered to your box, with pictures of what is coming. If it is not delivered, you can report to P.O. on line. I LOVE this option..I can arrange to be home when pkgs are expected.
the P.O. has just offered digital signing and option for delivery to another address. How great is that!
So what happens if the meds are stolen by porch pirates? The insurance company won't replace them, the P.O. can't replace them, and now you're without meds until your next refill. This is an issue that needs a solid resolution in place before I take that risk.
