    The weakest link for the Post Office is the local driver going mailbox to mailbox. Many of these delivery drivers do a great job — and some couldnt care one bit if you get your mail or your neighbors mail.

    One thing that helps is having a clearly visible address on your mail receptacle AND on your house in case a package needs to be left on your porch.
