We don't have it, however I will sometimes just type it in under "other".

I type it in under other.

I was under the impression that the customer couldn’t see what we type in the “other” delivery location when they track the package. That’s mostly why I want gate as an option.

Don’t know, but have been doing it for over 20 years in 4 different states.

No doubt. I do it all the time, and never scan the info notice.

I wonder what's the point of being able to type in a location if the customer can't see it.
I may test this. All you have to do is note the tracking number and track it yourself after delivery.

I think they can see the location but not the remarks/comments.

IE is getting a hard on trying to figure out how much time they can slice off for time allowance.
We don't have a "GATE" option either, we should. I have most of my gate codes and I will take them to the door to keep things from being stolen. I can't believe delivery drivers that leave things out in the weather next to the street where somebody can just stop and steal packages. I have a couple of customers that wouldn't give up gate codes and I stick their stuff in a DR bag and leave them on the other side of the gate post as out of sight as I can.
The post office where I am at doesn't leave anything bigger than an envelope in the mailbox. They will bring my packages to my porch and make another stop to cram envelopes into the mailbox, that makes no sense to me. I would leave the letters with the package, it must be some kind of regulation they have.

I always think it’s funny when I see a mail carrier do that. They pull in a drive way (always pull in. Never back). Then back out and put the mail in the box. Or vice versa.

I'm in California. We don't have weather. I don't leave things at gates for entire neighborhoods, only single home gates. We still try to leave stuff as much out of sight as possible. One of the main reasons we don't enter is dogs. I'm sure any Onroad Supervisor would rather have a DFU then a trip to the doctor's office.
