I just got my shipping conformation, I will be sitting by my front door all day. I will not miss them. I might even buy some adult diapers so I don't have to go to the bathroom.

Is this you waiting for your phone?
:D

No, they won't.

At least not around here. If the value of the package is more than $100, they won't leave it.
Yes they will, depending on the shipping that Verizon uses. If others have reported that you can write a note and have them leave it, then Verizon obviously uses the shipping method that meets the requirement below.

If your package was shipped with the Indirect Signature Release option, you may leave a signed and dated handwritten note on the door instructing the driver to leave the package at your door.

Hmm. Okay my mistake. Sorry about that. Must be a choice by the company then. I've had a few things sent from Dell and Sideshow Collectibles, and neither would leave the package without someone present.

Good to know. Thanks!

You're very welcome, Devz.

EDIT: I think I will actually leave a note on the door of the address where I'm having mine shipped. The house is located in the next town/county over, (sounds farther than it is) and it's a bit of a drive. I don't really feel like driving all the way out there, then all the way back + the distance to the FedEx location just to pick it up. I would rather them leave it there so that I can just drive over there and pick it up once it's delivered. The neighborhood is very new and isolated, as well as incredibly friendly. I'm not really worried about it getting jacked or something. One of my family members will most likely be there to sign for it anyway.
