APARTMENT DELIVERIES BY YODEL
Morning everyone. I just need to update on leaving parcels outside apartment doors. I can no longer risk leaving parcels outside your apartment doors UNLESS you specifically request it in the yodel app. PLEASE DON'T SELECT FRONT PORCH. This is due to the fact yodel have refused to pay me for doing it. Sorry for any inconvenience

Upto now we believe the following clients are being trialed with the redirect to locker system if a delivery is failed to the home address but please don't expect this to happen as it is on trial at the moment

Yours clothing, VF international (Timberland, Northface, VANS) Long Tall sally, and Online Home Shop (OHS)

There have probably been more added since.

THE INPOST LOCKER MUST BE WITHIN 500 METRES OF THE DELIVERY ADDRESS

Hi Everybody. From tomorrow Friday 24th April 2026 Yodel/Inpost are trialling diverting failed parcel deliveries to nearby Impost lockers (MAXIMUM 500 METRES FROM THE ADDRESS). This will ONLY be for certain clients at the moment apparently but if successful then they are looking at expanding the service. Apparently if a parcel is diverted to a locker no card will be left BUT you should receive an email to give you the details

Hi Everybody. It has now been confirmed by my SVC that if you request parcels to be left in your blue bins or green recycling boxes then we can now do that BUT ONLY IF YOU STATE THIS IN THE YODEL APP and NOT over a video doorbell or note on the door. Thanks for your continued support

Hi Everybody. Can I ask that if you are ever sent the feedback email and you are filling it in with the intention of leaving negative feedback for any reason, would you please include the parcel number you are complaining about because multiple parcels can be delivered by different couriers and if you include the parcel number in the feedback then I can see if it was a delivery I made or if it was the other van that comes directly from Selby. Many thanks

So all safe places MUST now be requested online via the yodel website or app (unless there is a suitable safe place under cover and out of sight i.e shed storage box greenhouse) . If you choose an outdoor safe place online i.e behind bins, over/ behind gates etc it is then upto the company where you buy from whether they will accept your safe place. If not then I will not be allowed to leave it. Also please be aware that Temu are overriding safe places by putting " leave in shed" even when people don't have sheds. Thanks for support

Unfortunately another 5 failed today. 2 of which were on the maximum 3 attempts allowed, so these will now be returned to the svc at Selby. The customers will have 7 days to arrange collection from Selby before they are returned to the sender 😔. I can't reiterate enough how valuable downloading the yodel app can be. You can choose preferred neighbours, safe places and change the delivery date to one that suits you or even redirect to an inpost locker if you prefer. Personally I don't get paid for failed deliveries so believe me I don't fail deliveries unless I have no other choice

Unfortunately I had to fail 11 deliveries today because no safe place was nominated on the yodel app and no neighbours available. Just a reminder that SAFE Places MUST be requested online and NOT a note on the door or requested over a video doorbell

IMPORTANT
I have found out today that even if you select a safe place in the app, then yodel are asking their clients (i.e where you the customer orders from) IF they will accept your chosen safe place. IF NOT
Then yodel will remove the safe place from the app. Absolutely ridiculous I know but apparently that is where we are. My advice ( and this is only my advice and not in anyway against anything you see fit ) is to possibly change the delivery date to a date when you will be home. Rest assured I will ALWAYS leave a card if I have to fail a delivery. Sorry for the inconvenience but I can't afford to risk not being paid for deliveries. Thanks for your understanding in advance

Morning everyone. I know the person probably isn't on here but I had a negative comment on my report from yesterday. Just a reminder that 1 if the sender requests proof of delivery then the app won't allow you to have a safe place and 2 I Cannnot follow instructions that are left as a note on your door or via a video doorbell. All safe places must be in the app. Thanks for your cooperation
