It depends what the carriers policy is, some insist on a signature.

 

If you do leave a note bear in mind that they will probably do as you ask and leave it but:

 

1) you cannot check if the parcels are damaged

2) Some opportunist might have the parcels away if they aren't hidden

3) some carriers will be reluctant to enter a gate at the side or back of the house

4) Some carriers will leave big packages at the kerbside or door only

5) by leaving a note you are advertising that you are not in

6) by leaving a note you take full responsibility of what happens to the parcel when they leave - they will note that you asked them to leave it and were not in.

 

I would probably take the risk if it was me but things could go wrong.

 

Maybe ask a neighbour if they would be so kind as to mind the house for a short while and take delivery?

 

If you know who the carrier is you could try the local depot to see where your drop of is in the workload - be nice and don't demand they move the time and they are normally pretty willing to tell you if you are delivery slot 1 or delivery slot 20 which gives you a rough indicator of when they may be with you if you ask how many deliveries they have in total.

 

Good luck :D
