It’s standard practice unless you pay for a “service” that lets them put it by the curb or your garage or designated package box.

Since I live in an apartment on the third floor, I usually have packages delivered to a nearby package point, but there was a special on cat litter and the package is too big to fit so I have to be home.

Which wouldn’t have been a problem if it had shipped yesterday like it was supposed to, thus arriving today where I’m home all day anyway, but I have to leave tomorrow afternoon and won’t be back again within the time window so HOORAY! 😮‍💨
