It means the courier can jump on your item, throw it out the van window and then say they left it in the safe place :-)
Just kidding OP - have used it before and it's been fine
I'm not sure what this even means. "Safe place"? It's somewhere that you can specify with some couriers to leave if you are not going to be in.

Deliveries to safe places, by Argiebaji on May 14, 2019 15:40:44 GMT 1, A few weeks ago a courier gentleman left a tube for me in our recycling bin ... However we were away on holiday for the week ...
Yep you've guessed it ... The bin got taken, along with the artworks!!
Slight problem as it had been marked as 'Delivered' ... A pretty big headache right there on return from our hols ...

Haha yeah not a chance for that. I usually get them redelivered to where I'm working at the time, but I'm cycling at the minute and didnt fancy holding a tube and cycling. Its nothing too pricey.

Deliveries to safe places, by Happy Shopper on May 14, 2019 16:06:21 GMT 1, The courier eBay use for their Global Shipping Program seem to have a policy of just leaving things on your door step if you're out... which is nice.
On the plus side, eBay have a policy of refunding the buyer and letting the seller keep their money if the item goes... "missing".

Say what! Dont they end up out of pocket all the time?
I've had some packages left literally on the doorstep before, and that wound me up. No effort to even hide it.

Haven't tried this, but the number of options now available to me is reassuring โ especially at institutions of higher learning.
I understand there are plenty of student campuses where my parcels will never risk being exposed to views that are out of sync with the currently-prevailing orthodoxy.

Deliveries to safe places, by kaotek on May 15, 2019 19:44:23 GMT 1, Last week I had DHL drop off an expensive print on my porch, while it was raining. Glad to say it ended up being ok, but it caused a load of stress.
