  "Everybody has jobs"
Yes, even the delivery guys who have already been working all day and probably don't want to work past 5pm. There are several alternatives to get custom delivery schedules that work for you, like Amazon locker or Doorman.co.

How about the local post office or your mail box?

I don't know about you, but my local post office opens at 10 and closes at 5pm, which are when I'm at work.

And my mailbox is a slot in the door. It's not going to accept my packages for me.

Oh, yeah. We don't actually have any real post offices where I live; post office functions are handled by select grocery stores and are available as long as the grocery stores are open.
