@SahmIam  Wow!! That’s crazy!! One time I had a very large box.My mailman said that he would be back later with help to lift it onto his truck.Later that afternoon he came back with another mailman & a little wagon & they took the box.I tried to tip them but they wouldn’t take it.

   I understand one person not being able to take a large package but they are supposed to work it out!!

@NicksmomESQ  I hear ya. The thing is, these weren't large (the size of a baby gate), they weren't heavy. He simply didn't want to do it. The more people I talk to, the more obvious it has become.

@SahmIam  Double wow!! That sounds like a dereliction of duty.According to my understanding it’s part of the job.If a mailman thinks something is too heavy he’s supposed to make other arrangements.That’s how my mail carrier explained it to me.

  Sorry that you had to go through that!!
