I had a package that was marked as "handed to resident" yesterday even though I live alone, no one else has access to my apartment, and I wasn't home all day.

There should be a photo receipt of where the package was left: simple and easy verification.

Not always. The probability of me getting photo verification is inversely proportional to the value of the package.

My $2 item that shipped by itself? Photo. $1300 worth of PC build? No photo, no doorbell, nothing...

Except for the drivers that take a photo of the package at the doorstep, then take the package.

There wasn't. The package was at my door today however.
