### The Problem With Delivery Windows
You've ordered something important. **Delivery window: 8am-6pm.** Which basically means you're trapped at home all day, or you miss it entirely and face the nightmare of redelivery or depot collection.
I can be there instead. You go to work, I wait for your delivery, sign for it, check it's not damaged, store it safely inside your home, and send you a photo when it's done.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** For expensive deliveries, having someone check and photograph the condition before signing can save you hassle later if there's damage to claim for.

What to Expect
### Step 1: Pre-Delivery Arrangement We'll agree the date, delivery window, and access method. You give me tracking info if you have it. I'll confirm I'm available and booked in. ### Step 2: Waiting & Receiving I arrive before the delivery window starts and wait. When it arrives, I check packaging condition, sign for it, and bring it inside. ### Step 3: Storage & Confirmation Parcel stored somewhere safe and sensible (not blocking doorways!). Photo sent to you showing it's arrived. Property locked up when I leave.

Good to Know
> 📱 **Live tracking?** Forward me the tracking link and I can monitor when it's actually coming rather than just waiting the full window. Often saves time. **Multiple properties or regular deliveries?** If you regularly need delivery acceptance, we can work out a retainer arrangement. Some people have monthly standing bookings for their online shopping habit. **Exeter businesses?** This works for business deliveries too - if your shop's getting a delivery but you're short-staffed that day, I can cover the acceptance and basic check-in.
Frequently Asked Questions about Delivery acceptance in Crediton
Why would I need someone to accept a delivery for me?
If you're at work all day and can't take time off for a delivery window, I can be there instead. Saves you missing deliveries, rearranging slots, or having parcels left with random neighbours. Especially useful for expensive items that need signing for.
How does it work on the day?
You give me your delivery window, I turn up and wait for it to arrive. I sign for it, check the packaging for obvious damage, and store it safely inside your home. Then I send you a photo to confirm it's arrived and lock up when I leave.
What if the delivery is damaged?
I'll check the packaging before signing - any obvious damage and I'll photograph it, note it on the delivery paperwork, and let you know immediately. Better to flag issues at point of delivery than discover problems later.
Can you accept multiple deliveries on the same day?
Yes - if you've got several arriving the same day, one booking covers them all. Just let me know the different delivery windows and I'll stay until everything's arrived or the windows have passed.
How do you access my property?
However you prefer - you can leave a key with me beforehand, use a key safe, or be home to let me in then head off to work. We'll arrange whatever you're comfortable with.
